Mute Datadog alerts for planned downtime
Datadog has introduced new muting features for monitors, allowing teams to filter out expected events during scheduled maintenance, testing, auto scaling events, and instance reboots. Users can now mute specific scopes of a monitor on an ad hoc basis using tags, schedule global mute settings with monitor downtiming, and benefit from automatic monitor downtiming for expected instance shutdowns in certain situations. These features help teams quickly pinpoint critical issues in their infrastructure by eliminating unnecessary alerting during planned events.
