What's this blog post about?

NVIDIA Jetson is a family of embedded computing boards designed for machine learning and AI applications at the edge. These devices are used in various sectors such as video and image processing, automating build processes in factories, and improving city infrastructures. Datadog IoT Agent now supports the current portfolio of Jetson boards, providing more visibility into IoT environments. It captures critical performance metrics from Jetson hardware, including GPU utilization and frequency, memory dedicated to the GPU, and external memory controller utilization. Datadog also collects standard system metrics for CPU, memory, and network I/O. This helps organizations monitor their fleet of Jetson devices and maintain them effectively. The platform provides full visibility into IoT networks, enabling quick identification of issues such as poorly performing or offline devices. It also allows users to proactively monitor their network with alerts that notify them when a device goes offline or experiences unusual drops in GPU utilization. Datadog helps organizations monitor critical resource metrics for their devices and track how specific events like software updates might have affected key device metrics, ensuring optimal performance of the fleet.
