Datadog, a monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, has launched its full range of products and services on the Amazon Web Services’ (AWS) Asia-Pacific (Sydney) Region.
The launch adds to existing locations in North America, Asia, and Europe.
The new local availability zone enables Datadog, its customers and partners to store and process data locally, aiming to enable faster observability and in-region capacity to meet applicable Australian privacy, security and data storage requirements.
Datadog's chief product officer, Yanbing Li, said this milestone reinforces Datadog’s commitment to supporting the region’s advanced digital capabilities, especially the Australian Government’s ambition to make the country a leading digital economy.
“With strong momentum across public and private sectors, our investment enhances trust in Datadog’s unified and cloud-agnostic observability and security platform, and positions us to meet the evolving needs of agencies and enterprises alike," said Li.
Datadog's VP for APJ, Rob Thorne, said Australian organisations are on track to spend nearly A$26.6 billion on public cloud services alone in 2025, according to Gartner.
"For organisations in highly regulated industries, it isn’t just the cloud provider that needs to have local data storage capacity – it should be all layers of the tech stack,” said
"This milestone reflects Datadog’s priority to support these investments.
"It’s the latest step in our expansion down under, and follows the continued addition of headcount to support our more than 1,100 A/NZ customers, as well as the recent appointments of Field CTO for APJ, Yadi Narayana, and Vice President of Commercial Sales for APJ, Adrian Towsey, to our leadership team."
