Datadog is a monitoring service for cloud-scale applications, providing monitoring of servers, databases, tools, and services, through a SaaS-based data analytics platform (see https://www.datadoghq.com/). You can protect access to Datadog by integrating Datadog with Identity as a Service. Once integrated, users can use single sign-on to log in to their Datadog account through Identity as a Service.
Note: This integration was tested using Identity as a Service version 5.15 and Datadog Release March 1, 2021. Other versions of Datadog may require integration and configuration steps that differ from those documented in this procedure. For other versions of Datadog, this integration guide may be used as an initial approach for integrating Datadog. In the event of other issues, contact support@entrust.com for assistance.
