The `datadog` component sends all state changes to [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com/) using a [Datadog Agent](http://docs.datadoghq.com/guides/basic_agent_usage/).
|
|
|
|
Datadog allows you to analyze, monitor, cross-reference and alert upon your data. You can use it to detect statistical anomalies, see graphs across multiple sources in real-time, send critical alerts to Slack, etc.

|
The component also sends events from the logbook into Datadog, allowing you to correlate these events with your data.
