What is datadog-cdk-constructs-v2?
The datadog-cdk-constructs-v2 npm package provides AWS CDK constructs for integrating Datadog monitoring and observability into your AWS infrastructure. It simplifies the process of setting up Datadog monitoring for AWS resources, including Lambda functions, ECS services, and more.
What are datadog-cdk-constructs-v2's main functionalities?
Datadog Lambda Monitoring
This feature allows you to monitor AWS Lambda functions with Datadog. The code sample demonstrates how to create a Lambda function and integrate it with Datadog for monitoring.
const { Datadog } = require('datadog-cdk-constructs-v2');
const { App, Stack } = require('aws-cdk-lib');
const { Function, Runtime, Code } = require('aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda');
const app = new App();
const stack = new Stack(app, 'DatadogLambdaStack');
const lambdaFunction = new Function(stack, 'MyLambdaFunction', {
runtime: Runtime.NODEJS_14_X,
handler: 'index.handler',
code: Code.fromAsset('lambda'),
});
new Datadog(stack, 'Datadog', {
node: stack.node,
lambdaFunctions: [lambdaFunction],
apiKey: 'your-datadog-api-key',
env: 'production',
});
app.synth();
Datadog ECS Monitoring
This feature allows you to monitor ECS services with Datadog. The code sample demonstrates how to create an ECS Fargate service and integrate it with Datadog for monitoring.
const { Datadog } = require('datadog-cdk-constructs-v2');
const { App, Stack } = require('aws-cdk-lib');
const { Cluster, FargateService, ContainerImage } = require('aws-cdk-lib/aws-ecs');
const app = new App();
const stack = new Stack(app, 'DatadogECSStack');
const cluster = new Cluster(stack, 'EcsCluster');
const fargateService = new FargateService(stack, 'FargateService', {
cluster,
taskDefinition: new TaskDefinition(stack, 'TaskDef', {
compatibility: Compatibility.FARGATE,
cpu: '256',
memoryMiB: '512',
}),
desiredCount: 1,
image: ContainerImage.fromRegistry('amazon/amazon-ecs-sample'),
});
new Datadog(stack, 'Datadog', {
node: stack.node,
ecsServices: [fargateService],
apiKey: 'your-datadog-api-key',
env: 'production',
});
app.synth();
Other packages similar to datadog-cdk-constructs-v2
aws-cdk
The aws-cdk package is the official AWS Cloud Development Kit, which allows you to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages. While it does not provide built-in Datadog integration, it can be used in conjunction with other packages to achieve similar monitoring capabilities.
serverless-plugin-datadog
The serverless-plugin-datadog package is a Serverless Framework plugin that enables Datadog monitoring for serverless applications. It provides similar functionality to datadog-cdk-constructs-v2 but is specifically designed for use with the Serverless Framework rather than AWS CDK.
datadog-lambda-js
The datadog-lambda-js package is a Datadog library for Node.js Lambda functions. It provides tools for instrumenting Lambda functions with Datadog, similar to the Lambda monitoring capabilities of datadog-cdk-constructs-v2, but it is not a CDK construct.
