Octopus Deploy Announces Integration With Datadog for World-class Monitoring of Deployment Pipelines

BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - June 10, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Octopus Deploy (Octopus), the industry standard for Continuous Delivery (CD), has announced an integration with Datadog, the monitoring and security platform for cloud platforms. The integration monitors Octopus deployments through the Datadog Agent. Used together, Octopus and Datadog become part of an organization's world-class pipeline, with both platforms supporting software at scale and integrating with any technology. Customers get a single pane of glass for monitoring, making it easier to track, visualize, and improve key metrics across all their projects. Learn more about the Octopus Datadog integration: The Octopus Datadog integration, built by Datadog, collects metrics from Octopus so customers can centralize their monitoring in Datadog. DevOps and platform engineering teams can track the performance of their teams' pipelines and visualize key metrics across all projects in one place. Site reliability engineers (SREs) and operations folks can monitor their applications running in production, see logs, and correlate problems that arise with what actually happened. "To quickly troubleshoot issues with software releases, engineering teams need granular, real-time visibility into their deployment pipelines in the same place they monitor the health and performance of their production services. By bringing deployment metrics and logs into Datadog, teams can quickly detect failed releases, understand their root causes, and correlate them with broader system performance," Jimmy Caputo, Director of Product Management at Datadog. Octopus strengthened its observability and monitoring this year with Kubernetes Live Object Status, which gives customers real-time updates about the state of their applications running on Kubernetes. Octopus also provides visibility into all deployments on its dashboards. Customers can see the stage, environment, and state of each deployment across multiple repositories in one place, and click through for the details on each project. The visibility you get in Octopus is further improved when combined with Datadog. The Octopus Datadog integration pulls data from Octopus into Datadog. From there, customers can monitor everything in their DevOps stack - all infrastructure, systems, apps, and services - in a single location. "We want to help our customers get working software into production as soon as possible, and the Octopus Datadog integration helps do just that," Colin Bowern, SVP of Product at Octopus Deploy. "Octopus already provides great visibility across your Continuous Delivery pipeline, but with the Octopus Datadog integration, you can see your entire DevOps stack in one spot and correlate data more easily, using two best-of-breed platforms." The Datadog Agent collects metrics from Octopus used for performance monitoring, like average deployment time per environment, and deployment failure rate for a project. It also collects deployment logs, which are useful for debugging failed deployments, and server logs, which provide diagnostic information about the Octopus server. The Octopus Datadog integration can be set up following the instructions in the Datadog Docs. You can experience the power of the Octopus and Datadog integration at DASH, Datadog's annual observability conference, in New York City, June 1011, 2025, by visiting Octopus Deploy's booth. About At Octopus Deploy, we set the standard for Continuous Delivery (CD), empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Globally, more than 4,000 organizations rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions to deliver swift value to their customers.

Still Saying 'I'll Just Do It'? That's Why You're Stuck

If your business would collapse without your daily involvement, you haven't built systems — you've built a job. Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. "Nobody can do it to my level of quality." Sound familiar? I hear this refrain repeatedly from fellow entrepreneurs and our customers at Marketcircle. Though I was fortunate to have experience leading teams before starting my business, I've watched countless small business owners struggle with this mindset. It creates a critical growth ceiling that many never break through. The reality is simple: you only have 24 hours a day. If you insist on doing everything yourself, your business can never grow beyond what you personally can accomplish in those hours. Related: Are You Running Your Business, or Is Your Business Running You? The trap of self-reliance Most solopreneurs and small business owners start with a side gig, gain confidence and then transition to full-time. The problem emerges when you reach capacity but still believe nobody else can match your standards. The consequences are predictable: Working 18-hour days with no end in sight Sacrificing personal relationships and health Hitting an income ceiling limited by your available hours Never being able to take time off I've seen countless talented entrepreneurs burn out because they couldn't escape this trap. They're working in their business rather than on it. Testing your delegation readiness Want to know if you're stuck in this trap? Ask yourself one simple question: can you take a vacation? If your business would collapse without your daily involvement, you haven't built systems — you've built a job. Another indicator: when faced with explaining a task to someone else, do you find yourself saying, "I might as well just do it myself"? That's a warning sign that your business growth is on borrowed time. Breaking through the mental block The foundation of letting go starts with a mindset shift. You must recognize that there are people who can do certain tasks not just adequately but actually better than you. This was a revelation for me. I pride myself on being a good architect, yet a developer on our team consistently outperforms me in this area. Rather than threatening my ego, this frees me to focus on areas where I add unique value. Watching shows like "Chef's Table" on Netflix can be eye-opening. These displays of extraordinary skill in specific domains remind us that expertise exists everywhere. When you acknowledge this reality, hiring becomes less about filling vacancies and more about discovering specialists who elevate your entire operation. Teaching principles, not just steps Many entrepreneurs fail at delegation because they only teach steps — "do this, then this, then this" — without explaining the underlying principles. This attracts and retains what I call "button-pushers," who need constant direction. When something unexpected happens (and it always does), they're lost. A more effective approach: Explain why you organize things the way you do. Share the reasoning behind processes. Teach the principles that guide decisions. Let them understand the context, not just the actions. One example from our work developing Daylite: when organizing code, I spent time explaining to our team why we structured elements in specific ways based on certain patterns and principles. Initially, this took longer than just dictating steps, but the payoff was worth it — team members began making independent decisions that maintained our quality standards without requiring my input. Setting clear expectations For delegation to succeed, expectations must be crystal clear. This requires: Thoughtful planning: Determine what you actually want accomplished. Clear expectations: Don't assume people understand what you want. Defined timeframes: Agree on when things should be done. Regular check-ins: Verify progress without micromanaging – trust, but verify. I struggle with this myself. I often assume people understand what I want, but that's not necessarily true. Taking time to establish clear expectations upfront prevents frustration on both sides. Finding solution-seekers True delegation demands having the right people to delegate to. Along my entrepreneurial journey, I've identified three distinct types: Negative Spinners who fixate on problems, Silent Types who follow orders without contribution and Solution Seekers who naturally explore possibilities. Only by finding these Solution Seekers can you genuinely let go. These team members don't just complete tasks — they improve processes and spot opportunities independently. Their problem-solving mindset extends your impact rather than merely replacing your time. At Marketcircle, this approach has transformed how we operate. When complex business challenges arise, having team members who contribute creative alternatives allows me as CEO to focus on strategic direction while trusting they'll navigate the day-to-day hurdles effectively. Related: Take Control of Your Business by Treating It Like a Knife Fight The ultimate liberation The irony of control is that you gain more by letting go. By building systems, teaching principles, and finding people who excel in areas where you're merely competent, you create a more resilient organization. This doesn't just free your time — it multiplies your impact. Instead of being limited by your 24 hours, you leverage the intelligence and energy of an entire team. When entrepreneurs make this shift, they build better businesses and they reclaim their lives. They can focus on vision and growth while their teams handle execution. They can finally take that vacation. And paradoxically, their businesses often perform better without their constant intervention. So, are you ready to let go?
