Transform and enrich your logs with Datadog Observability Pipelines

What's this blog post about?

Today’s distributed IT infrastructure generates logs in various formats, making it challenging to extract valuable insights from raw data. To address this issue, Datadog Observability Pipelines provides an out-of-the-box solution that enables teams to aggregate, process, and route their logs behind a single pane of glass. The Grok Parser allows users to automatically apply preconfigured parsing rules to transform log formats, while the Enrichment Table processor enriches data by adding contextual information, such as employee names or delivery zones. Additionally, the Add Hostname processor embeds system information in structured format, and the GeoIP Parser adds geographical context to logs, enhancing security monitoring and data analytics. By leveraging these processors, teams can simplify debugging, improve data quality, and gain faster insights into their infrastructure operations.
