Reduce context switching while troubleshooting with Datadog's IDE plugins

What's this blog post about?

Developers often face challenges in troubleshooting issues between development, testing, and production environments due to variables such as large-scale user requests and increased server load. Datadog offers plugins for various IDEs like VS Code, Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, GoLand, and PyCharm to provide visibility into live production data directly within the coding environment. These plugins help developers correlate security issues, high resource consumption, and degraded performance directly to the methods and lines of code responsible without leaving their coding environment. This reduces context switching and creates a more streamlined investigative workflow. The IDE plugins can be used for highlighting performance, reliability, and security issues; identifying resource-intensive methods; and proactively fixing noncompliant code prior to execution.
