Free Datadog accounts for students

John Keats once said, "Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced." This quote aptly applies to dynamic infrastructure and distributed applications where understanding a technology's theoretical functionality often differs from its practical implementation. Modern computer-science programs primarily focus on architecture and design fundamentals, leaving students with little knowledge of monitoring best practices or experience with monitoring tools. To address this gap, Datadog has partnered with GitHub's Student Developer Pack to offer free Datadog Pro accounts for up to 10 hosts to eligible students. These accounts provide the same features as paid versions, including data storage, alerting capabilities, collaboration options, and access to Datadog Support Team assistance.
