Watch list
- Q3 2026 revenue versus guidance of $1.135-$1.145 billion after management said a usage reduction at the largest customer is incorporated in Q3 and full-year guidance source
- Growth of $100k+ ARR customers beyond about 4,720 and multi-product adoption trends source
- Adoption of Bits AI agents, GPU Monitoring and the Adaptive ML acquisition closed in June 2026 source
Growth drivers
- CEO Olivier Pomel: customers are building and deploying with AI and using the Datadog platform to observe, secure and act on their AI-enabled solutions source
- Platform expansion: 58% of customers use four or more products (up from 52%), 37% use six or more (up from 29%), 13% use ten or more (up from 7%) source

- Datadog relies on third-party cloud infrastructure providers to host its products, and disruptions or capacity limits could impede customer onboarding and expansion source
- The markets are highly competitive, including against native tools from AWS, Azure and GCP and larger vendors offering bundled or lower-cost alternatives source
