Make your case to attend

DASH, Datadog’s annual conference, is happening on June 09–10 in New York City, and I’d like to attend. The conference is packed with practical insights into how modern engineering, security, and AI-enabled workflows operate—knowledge that will help us collaborate more effectively across teams.

Relevant Learning Areas

• Best practices for monitoring, improving application performance and reliability, and optimizing cloud costs
• How DevOps, SRE, and AI teams use observability to improve delivery, reliability, and decision-making
• How security teams reduce code and cloud vulnerabilities, manage risk, and accelerate TDIR workflows
• Hands-on workshops covering best practices for incident response, automation, and how to ensure the best service quality

AI-Accelerated Workflows

DASH will also cover how teams are incorporating AI into development, operations, and security. Understanding these trends will help us anticipate how these tools are shaping workflows, cross-functional collaboration, delivery timelines, and security operations.

Team Impact

During the event, I plan to focus on insights that directly support our priorities:

• [Project or initiative]
• [Project or initiative]

I’m happy to host a brief session afterward to share key takeaways and recommended improvements to our workflows. The total investment would be [ticket cost + estimated travel], and I believe the practical, cross-team insights gained will more than justify the cost.
