Powering Trusted AI Analytics at Scale: How SAS Transforms Performance with Datadog

SAS Institute powers some of the world’s most critical decisions, from detecting financial fraud to accelerating medical breakthroughs. With a cloud-native platform supporting more than 100 microservices, SAS needed a unified way to keep performance predictable, reliable, and fast for customers who depend on real-time insights. With Datadog, SAS has transformed how its teams observe, debug, and optimize their systems. Engineers now have a single view of traces, logs, metrics, databases, and Kubernetes data, giving them the clarity to reduce MTTR, accelerate performance tuning, and eliminate waste across their multicloud environment. These gains have delivered dramatic results: faster features, lower compute costs, and rapid debugging cycles that turn hours into minutes. By unifying observability and enabling smarter collaboration, Datadog is helping SAS build a leaner, more efficient, and more dependable analytics platform that strengthens customer trust at global scale.
