Datadog, the monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, announced that it has completed the acquisition of Ozcode, a live debugging solution that provides code-level observability in production environments.
The addition of Ozcode will support Datadog’s customers to accelerate software development and reduce the mean time it takes to resolve issues.
Software debugging has traditionally been restricted to pre-production environments. As a result, when errors do occur in production, engineering teams have to resort to analysing countless logs or replicating the issues in their pre-production environments to investigate.
This cumbersome process increases the time it takes to identify the root cause of issues and resolve them. Ozcode’s live debugging solution enables customers to rapidly instrument and resolve these errors in production systems without the need to invest time and resources to replicate these issues in pre-production environments.

“Modern organisations are under pressure to increase the speed and frequency of their releases,” said Renaud Boutet, Senior Vice President of Product Management, Datadog. “With Ozcode, Datadog will help developers troubleshoot issues directly in production by finding the specific line of code where a problem has occurred. This will help reduce their mean time to resolution, accelerate software delivery and create a better end-user experience.”
“Our vision at Ozcode has always been to reinvent debugging and give developers the tools they need to quickly troubleshoot and resolve issues so that they have more time to craft high-quality code,” said Shimon Hason, CEO, Ozcode. “We’re excited to join Datadog and continue building on our vision of code-level observability.”
