One of the things I am working on is moving all our monitoring to grab and store into Azure Log Analytics.

This tool is rather smart, if it can hook into all the services then let me funnel it to Log Analytics that would be cool.

Not sure the value for others but using multiple platforms, our logs are everywhere. Would be nice to connect them all to Microsoft LAW then slowly replace each integration when possible.

I don't get it. Datadog can generate a ticket. It has runbooks. What am I missing.

AFAIK Datadog doesn't replace the need for other tools, eg Pagerduty

companies often find themselves using more than 1 tool that generates alerts, for instance when Datadog is not sufficient (lacking some integration, need some other dashboard capability, etc.).

Grafana Observability survey mentioned that 52% of companies who answered the survey use more than 6(!) different observability tools.[1]

let's leave the fact that Datadog itself expensive as hell and the fact that organizations do move towards consolidations with observability-it's never enough alone.
