DASH 2026 brought thousands of engineers, builders, security professionals, and technology leaders to New York City for 2½ days focused on building, operating, and securing modern systems.
Across hands-on sessions and more than 40 customer talks, teams shared how they’re tackling real-world challenges at scale with Datadog. On stage, the keynote set the direction for what’s next across observability, security, and AI, highlighting a shift toward more autonomous, AI-assisted operations.
