Introducing Datadog Agent 7

What's this blog post about?

Version 7 of the Datadog Agent has been released with Python 3 runtime support only. This is the first version to not include Python 2, as it will reach its end-of-life on January 1, 2020. The new Agent supports all existing integrations and provides a tool for checking compatibility of custom Python checks. A migration guide has been provided to help users transition their custom checks from Python 2 to Python 3. Additionally, Datadog Agent 6.16 allows users to test their checks with the Python 3 runtime before upgrading to version 7.
