Summary

Continuous integration (CI) has become an essential practice in software development, and Datadog offers out-of-the-box support for several CI tools to provide visibility into these pipelines. Monitoring CI servers helps identify bottlenecks and correlating CI activity with application performance metrics can pinpoint problematic deployments. Datadog's integrations with popular CI tools, such as Jenkins, GitLab, CircleCI, Travis CI, TeamCity, and Azure DevOps, enable users to watch for problems in their pipelines and troubleshoot issues by comparing events in CI pipelines with trends in metrics, logs, or request traces. Datadog also allows users to set up alerts based on specific information from their CI infrastructure.
