Introducing metric forecasts for predictive monitoring in Datadog

Datadog has introduced forecasting algorithms that use machine learning to predict future values of metrics and alert users in advance about potential issues. Forecasts can account for seasonality and adapt to baseline shifts, allowing users to visualize expected trends and set up alerts accordingly. The feature is useful not only for tracking infrastructure and application metrics but also for forecasting critical business metrics. By combining historical trends with future insights, forecasts in Datadog's dashboards provide more visibility into the health and performance of services.
