Announcement
Critical Cloud today announced that it has achieved the “Powered by Datadog” accreditation, recognising the company’s Datadog-powered cloud operations service, in which Datadog’s observability platform is a foundational component of the value delivered to customers across managed AWS and Azure environments.
“Powered by Datadog” is a designation awarded to partners whose managed service offerings are architected around the Datadog platform. Achieving Powered by Datadog requires partners to already hold Certified Datadog Advanced Partner status and reflects Critical Cloud’s ability to utilise Datadog as the operational backbone of its cloud managed services—helping customers improve reliability, reduce downtime, and accelerate troubleshooting through a single, unified observability platform.
Critical Cloud monitors, manages, and optimises customer AWS and Azure platforms using Datadog as its core observability, incident response, security signals, and cloud cost insight layer. Standardising the managed service model on Datadog provides customers with a single source of truth for operational insight—eliminating fragmented tooling and reducing mean time to resolution.
As part of its Datadog-powered AWS and Azure managed services, customers have direct access to Datadog as an embedded component of the offering. Operating Datadog across multiple customer environments at production scale gives Critical Cloud first-hand operational experience, which is applied directly to running and optimising customer platforms.
Through its “Powered by Datadog” managed services, Critical Cloud helps organisations adopt Datadog end to end—from onboarding and architecture design through to day-to-day operations and continuous optimisation. Customers benefit from faster root cause analysis, improved reliability, and clear operational visibility across their technology stacks.
