Datadog On-Call integrates monitoring, paging, and incident response into one platform.

Concepts

• Pages represent something to get alerted for, such as a monitor, incident, or security signal. A Page can have a status of Triggered, Acknowledged, or Resolved.
• Teams are groups configured within Datadog to handle specific types of Pages, based on expertise and operational roles.
• Processing rules allow Teams to finely adjust their reactions to specific types of incoming events. These rules can set a Page’s urgency level and route Pages to different escalation policies depending on the event’s metadata.
• Escalation policies determine how Pages are escalated within or across Teams.
• Schedules set timetables for when specific Team members are on-call to respond to Pages.

How it works

Teams are the central organizational unit of Datadog On-Call. When a notification is triggered in Datadog, a Page is sent to the designated On-Call Team.

Each Team owns escalation policies and schedules. Escalation policies define how a Page is sent to various schedules, such as Checkout Operations - Interrupt Handler, Primary, and Secondary in the following screenshot. Each Team can also configure processing rules to route Pages to different escalation policies.

A schedule defines specific times when Team members are assigned to respond to Pages. Schedules organize and manage the availability of Team members across different time zones and shifts.
