Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
A Pulse workflow starts from a specific event in Amazon CloudWatch, such as an alarm returns to OK, and runs a single defined action in Datadog each time that event fires. Exact triggers and actions are configured per workflow.
Yes. Pulse listens for the event in Amazon CloudWatch and pushes the update to Datadog as soon as it happens, rather than waiting for a scheduled batch sync. Typical delivery is near-instant, depending on the source platform's webhook or event support.
Yes, though it runs as a separate one-way workflow in the other direction. Commercient can set up a second Pulse trigger so that when a monitor recovers in Datadog, the update flows back into Amazon CloudWatch automatically.
Pulse workflows are event-driven, so they react as soon as Amazon CloudWatch emits the triggering event. Reaction time is typically within seconds, depending on how quickly Amazon CloudWatch delivers the event.
No. Pulse workflows are configured, not coded. Commercient sets up the trigger in Amazon CloudWatch and the matching action in Datadog for you, so no in-house development work is required.
