Why teams connect Datadog and Dremio

Close the gap between analytics and operations: Dremio holds the record while Datadog runs the day-to-day work, and Stacksync keeps the two in step in real time, in both directions.

Dremio is the central store where teams keep Reflections, Jobs, Sources, Physical datasets for reporting and analysis; Datadog runs the operational side of engineering work — tracking issues, moving messages and events, watching systems, and managing users and access. The two overlap wherever the same operational data matters to both: the Metrics, Incidents, Service Level Objectives, Hosts produced in Datadog are exactly what analysts want to measure in Dremio, and the curated rows in Dremio are what should drive the next action in Datadog. When that overlap is bridged by nightly ETL or hand-written scripts, dashboards lag a day behind reality and the tools that should react to warehouse signals never see them.

Stacksync syncs Reflections, Jobs, Sources, Physical datasets in Dremio with Metrics, Incidents, Service Level Objectives, Hosts in Datadog field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync matches records on a stable external key, keeps every copy consistent, and resolves conflicts by rules you set — so analytics and operations work from the same current data instead of two drifting copies.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate data from multiple lake sources through one Dremio semantic layer into a single warehouse target.
  • 02 Sync curated Dremio views into an operational Postgres so applications get low-latency access to lakehouse data.
  • 03 Publish deploy and pipeline Events, and submit custom Metrics, into Datadog from CI/CD or a data pipeline to enrich dashboards and correlation.
  • 04 Load Events and Incidents into a warehouse to correlate deploys, alerts, and outages on one timeline for post-incident review.

Common sync patterns

Operational data lands in Dremio for analytics

Records created in Datadog — issues, events, messages, metrics, or user changes — replicate into Dremio tables as they happen, so reporting runs on current data instead of last night's export.

Warehouse signals reach Datadog

A row scored, flagged, or enriched in Dremio creates or updates the matching record in Datadog, so the operational tool acts on the same data the analysts already see.

Backfill history, then stay live

Load the existing set of Metrics, Incidents, Service Level Objectives, Hosts into Dremio once, then keep it current with every change — you get full history plus real-time updates without a separate pipeline.

What you can sync between Datadog and Dremio

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Datadog objects Dremio objects How this pairing syncs
Hosts Infrastructure host inventory with tags and metadata from the v1 host list API; loaded into a CMDB or warehouse for asset tracking, and hosts can be muted or unmuted via the API. Virtual datasets (views) SQL views layering semantics over physical data; the preferred sync target for curated extracts. Hosts is specific to Datadog and Virtual datasets (views) to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Monitors Alert definitions with query, thresholds, and current state via the v1 Monitors API, which supports full create, update, and delete; Stacksync reads alert state into a warehouse or provisions and updates monitors from a config source. Apache Iceberg tables Lakehouse tables supporting DML and snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Monitors is specific to Datadog and Apache Iceberg tables to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Logs Log events searched via the v2 Logs search endpoint by time window and submittable through the log intake API; commonly streamed to a warehouse for retention beyond Datadog's storage period. Spaces and folders Namespaces that organize virtual datasets and govern access. Logs is specific to Datadog and Spaces and folders to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events The event stream (deploys, alerts, comments) searched via the v2 Events endpoint and posted via POST /api/v1/events; used to correlate deploy and incident timelines or to publish deploy and pipeline events into Datadog. Reflections Materialized accelerations that make repeated extraction queries cheaper. Events is specific to Datadog and Reflections to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via the v1 Dashboards API with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit, or created and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Jobs Query execution records useful for monitoring sync workloads. Dashboards is specific to Datadog and Jobs to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Time-series metrics queried in aggregate windows through the query API and submitted via POST /api/v1/series; individual raw points cannot be extracted beyond retention. Sources Connected storage and database systems (S3, ADLS, relational databases) Dremio queries in place. Metrics is specific to Datadog and Sources to Dremio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Datadog and Dremio

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Datadog Dremio Sub-second propagation

DetectionDatadog notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor).

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Dremio as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Dremio Datadog Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Dremio for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Datadog through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Datadog: Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.
  • Dremio: Bounded by engine capacity and workload management rather than API rate limits.

How the Datadog and Dremio connectors work

Datadog

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2)
Authentication
API key (DD-API-KEY) plus an Application key (DD-APPLICATION-KEY) sent as request headers; application keys are tied to the creating user and inherit that user's permissions and authorization scopes.
Change detection
Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor); monitor alerts can also push via the Webhooks notification integration. No modified-date CDC on mutable objects.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.

Dremio

Integration surface
Arrow Flight SQL, JDBC/ODBC, and a REST API
Authentication
Personal access tokens or username/password; OAuth-based SSO on Dremio Cloud
Change detection
Polling via SQL; Iceberg table snapshots can anchor incremental reads; no consumer-facing change feed
