Datadog Cluster Monitoring
Overview
Datadog Cluster Monitoring for PCF is made up of two components: * The Datadog Firehose Nozzle * The Datadog Agent
The Datadog Nozzle is a Cloud Foundry component which forwards metrics from the Loggregator Firehose to the Datadog monitoring platform. Any Cloud Foundry deployment can send metrics and events to Datadog. The data helps you track the health and availability of all nodes in the deployment, monitor the jobs they run, collect metrics from the Loggregator Firehose, and more.
The Datadog Agent is a small daemon that is installed via BOSH addon to run on every host and collect infrastructure metrics from each host.
Features
