Says the blog of a company selling "An open-source observability platform built for simplicity."

The tension of expertise and self-interest is a tough one (I live this every day). If you know enough to have a good opinion, you are probably either:

   * a hobbyist fitting learning into the edges of the day
   * an experienced person who is too busy to write up your opinions
   * someone with a vested interest, selling something
So hard as an outsider to determine who to trust and how far to trust them.

Datadog is one of the companies that somehow get a hold of your company email address and spam everyone there with email subjects like “Re: meeting next week”. Instant ick.

Expensive bills and open source alternatives are not enough to make anyone "the new Oracle", particularly not your competitors.
