Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. You’ve got quite an impressive track-record as an entrepreneur and founder. Tell us a little bit about your background, and some of the things you’re now focused on at Datadog.

Topic 2 - You wrote that “Master is the new Prod, and Devs are the new Ops”. Can you help us unpack the concepts that you were trying to convey?

Topic 3 -.How widespread is the understanding that it’s important to monitor CI/CD environments, vs. the more traditional focus of monitoring production environments?

Topic 4 - What are some of the areas where CI visibility or synthetic CI/CD testing helps improve application quality and overall availability in production?  

Topic 5 -  All of these efforts to test earlier, integrate earlier and have visibility earlier sound like the “shift left” movement. Are those things difficult to do, since many companies have siloed teams?  

Topic 6 - What are some of the ways that your team has been able to take the technology from Undefined Labs and bring it into the broader scope of capabilities that are available through Datadog?
