DASH 2025 brought the Datadog community together like never before. During our biggest event yet, thousands of attendees gathered at the North Javits Center in New York City for two and a half days of content, learning, and community, where they deepened their knowledge and connected with peers. Here’s a quick look back at some of the highlights from this year’s DASH.
Day one’s keynote introduced a series of exciting product announcements and updates, including Flex Logs, Bits AI, and Datadog IDP—designed to help teams scale observability, harness AI more effectively, and streamline the developer experience. Check out the full list of product announcements in our DASH feature roundup post.
Additionally, we welcomed guest speakers Bhawna Singh, CTO of Okta, and Dave Asai, CTO of Toyota Connected, to the stage, where they shared how their teams are using Datadog to build innovative products like Okta’s Auth for GenAI Platform and Toyota Connected’s Drivelink.
On day two, we hosted a special keynote conversation between actor and comedian Kumail Nanjiani and Datadog CMO Sara Varni. Kumail shared lessons learned from his experience in Hollywood, touching on themes of change, resilience, and reinvention, with plenty of humor along the way.
This year’s event featured more than 100 sessions across breakouts, workshops, and expo theaters. Throughout the sessions, Datadog customers shared how they’re using observability, monitoring, and security tooling within their organizations. Featured presentations included sessions by Coinbase, who described how they’ve improved incident response and reliability through Distributed Tracing, and Block, who explained how they leveraged Kubernetes platform administrators to automate user journey testing and improve their SLOs. Breakout sessions are now available to view on the Datadog YouTube channel.
Hands-on learning continues to be a highlight of our live events. At this year’s DASH, we held 24 interactive workshops covering topics such as OpenTelemetry, Kubernetes, and DevSecOps. If you were unable to attend, you can view available courses on the Datadog Learning Center. Additionally, we filled two theaters in the expo hall, where attendees joined live demos, learned about new Datadog features, got product updates, and heard from our partners.
At DASH 2025, we hosted four different regional programs for customers traveling to the event from EMEA, Brazil, Japan, and Korea. As Datadog continues to grow our international user communities, we’ll host regional tracks so we can highlight and focus on the issues most relevant to those regions.
This year, we hosted a Women in Tech Lunch Panel, moderated by Ajuna Kyaruzi, a manager on the Datadog advocacy team. The panel featured senior engineering leaders (staff level and above) who spoke about their day-to-day roles and the value of pursuing work that aligns with their personal interests and strengths.
These leaders shared insights on how to navigate career growth, highlighting the benefits of lateral moves—including transitions to management—as a better way to understand the business and align with their own individual goals. They also emphasized the importance of visibility and cross-functional collaboration, encouraging attendees to share their knowledge and build connections with peers.
To kick off DASH, we held the fourth annual DASH Partner Summit, uniting partners from around the world to connect, collaborate, and explore new growth opportunities together. It was the largest Datadog Partner Network (DPN) presence at DASH, featuring 31 sponsors and 568 partner attendees.
Partners heard directly from Jarrod Buckley, Datadog’s VP of Channels and Alliances, who emphasized the critical role partners play in Datadog’s growth. He reflected on last year’s success and outlined how the partner ecosystem continues to be essential to Datadog’s future, particularly through strategic customer engagement, global expansion, and multi-product adoption. Joining him on stage to reinforce this message were guest speakers from Appoena, HCL, iFood, Itaú, Kyndryl, and RapDev, who shared stories of collaboration and innovation with Datadog.
The Partner Summit concluded with a celebration of the 2025 Datadog Partner of the Year Awards. Congratulations to this year’s winners! We are grateful for your continued partnership:
We offer a huge thank you to all of our partners who help make DASH 2025 a success. If your organization is interested in joining the DPN, reach out to us for more information.
