Announcing support for Graviton2-powered AWS Fargate deployments

What's this blog post about?

AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine that allows users to deploy containerized applications without managing compute resources. Datadog has partnered with Amazon to support workloads running on Graviton2, Amazon's ARM64 processor. Through the partnership, Datadog enables monitoring of health and performance metrics for Graviton2-powered serverless workloads alongside other environments. The integration automatically ingests Fargate metrics from Graviton2 deployments via Amazon CloudWatch and provides an out-of-the-box AWS Fargate dashboard. Additionally, the Datadog Agent natively supports ARM-based architectures, allowing users to get more granular metrics by deploying the containerized Agent image in their ECS tasks. The Container Map and Live Containers view provide real-time visibility into containers' performance, enabling users to identify and investigate issues such as CPU or memory overconsumption, code errors, or network latency.
