Description
This destination allows you to send metrics data to Datadog.Configuration
You can only use the Datadog Metrics destination with the Datadog Agent, HTTP Source, OpenTelemetry Source, and Prometheus Remote Write Source as the sources configured in your pipeline. Metrics sent from Mezmo to Datadog are considered Custom Metrics within Datadog and will have an impact on your bill.Configuration Options
OpenTelemetry Metrics
Metrics from the OpenTelemetry Source are mapped the same way the Datadog Agent maps OTLP metrics:- The instrumentation scope name and version become the
instrumentation_scopeandinstrumentation_scope_versiontags. Scope attributes also become tags. - Histograms are sent as sketches that carry the exact count and sum reported by OpenTelemetry. Delta histograms also carry the exact min and max.
- Exemplars, metric descriptions, data point flags, and start times aren’t sent.
