Monitor MapR performance with Datadog

The MapR Data Platform is designed to manage, analyze, and store all types of data at scale across various infrastructures and locations. It leverages dataware, an abstraction layer that separates data from dependencies. The platform supports open source engines and tools such as Apache Hadoop, Hive, and HBase. Datadog's new integration with MapR 6.1+ provides comprehensive visibility into the distributed big data architecture, allowing users to quickly diagnose resource and performance-related issues. This includes monitoring key metrics from a user's MapR environment, tracking file system activity levels, detecting database query performance issues, and navigating changes in the flow of messages.
