The product improves developer productivity by
saving time needed to reproduce and troubleshoot production
issues
NEW
YORK, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Datadog,
Inc. (NASDAQ: DDOG), the monitoring and security platform for
cloud applications, today announced the launch of Live Debugger, a
new tool that enables developers to step through code in production
environments and find the exact root cause of coding errors. Live
Debugger requires no downtime and enables developers to work
directly in production environments instead of spending countless
hours of trial and error to reproduce production issues in
development environments.
Traditional debugging techniques require significant time and
manual effort. Developers are tasked with setting up breakpoints
throughout their code base, combing through unfamiliar code and
documentation written by others, and trying to reproduce the exact
same production issue with the exact same conditions in their local
environment.
Live Debugger greatly simplifies this process by aggregating the
necessary information from the live production environment and
integrating it directly into the user's Integrated Development
Environment (IDE). The product accelerates root-cause analysis with
AI-generated exception summaries and one-click test creation to
accurately reproduce all bug conditions based on production data.
Using Live Debugger not only improves the developer experience, it
also dramatically reduces the time it takes to resolve issues,
freeing up engineers to spend more time delivering business
value.
"Debugging can be a slow and inefficient process which requires
extensive manual data collection and the ability to reproduce bugs
in perfectly reconstructed conditions. These constraints negatively
impact developer productivity and, ultimately, the end user
experience," said Hugo Kaczmarek,
Director of Product at Datadog. "With today's launch, we are taking
the guesswork out of debugging, minimizing the friction experienced
by developers and creating a tool that inherently supports rapid
issue resolution while maintaining the highest standards of code
quality and security."
Features of Live Debugger include:
- Exception Replay: Developers can step through the
execution flow of their code and see local variable values that
were captured live when the exception was thrown—all without
needing to run code.
- Powerful Visualizations and Context: Datadog's unified
platform delivers the observability context needed to troubleshoot
issues quickly and provides an AI-powered summary of the code's
executional context, a starting hypothesis for the root cause of
the issue, and visualizations of data flows between services and
where the interaction between them occurred in the code.
- Integrated AI-Generated Tests: Teams can quickly and
accurately reproduce issues by using production data to mock all
relevant values across dependent microservices. Tests can then be
run directly in the customer's IDE with just one click.
Live Debugger is available in beta now. To learn more, please
