Monitor alerts and events with OpsGenie and Datadog

OpsGenie has enhanced its bidirectional integration with Datadog to provide timely notifications of triggered alerts for infrastructure components and applications monitored by the latter. This integration enables users to create powerful alert notification and incident response orchestration solutions, leveraging OpsGenie's smart escalation rules, on-call schedules, and rotations. Datadog triggers an alert when it detects a problem, and with the OpsGenie integration, when Datadog creates an alert, OpsGenie automatically creates one too. The integration also allows users to create alerts in OpsGenie from the Datadog UI by using @mentions when they create, acknowledge, or close alerts from their Datadog event stream. By sending Datadog alerts to OpsGenie, users can take full advantage of OpsGenie's alerting and incident response capabilities, such as defining the right recipients for their alerts, as well as defining severity levels of incidents and prioritizing them based on their impact on their business.
