Automatic discovery

Datadog Service Catalog is pre-populated with entries detected through APM, eBPF-based autodiscovery with Universal Service Monitoring, and RUM applications.

With APM, Datadog can automatically discover the dependencies for an instrumented service, such as a database, a queue, or a third-party dependencies, even if that dependency hasn’t been instrumented yet. These uninstrumented dependencies are categorized as separate services. Datadog changed service names of client spans (span.kind:client) to represent dependencies of your instrumented services. For example, a span representing a client call from a service auth-dotnet to a PostgreSQL database would be tagged with service:auth-dotnet-postgres.

If you are using APM and would like to remove the automatically named services from your Service Catalog and Service Map, you can opt in to new inferred entities experience, which allows you to filter Service Catalog entries by entity type, such as database, queue, or third-party dependencies. You can optionally remove any service overrides like service:my-service-http-client from your catalog or map.

Enrich auto-detected services with metadata

To specify on-call, source code, or documentation for your services, you can add metadata to any existing services via the UI, APIs, or other automation. 2.2 is the recommended version. To try experimental features, you can opt into the beta program for schema 3.0 by submitting a request.

Opt in to the private beta for metadata schema v3.0!

Request Access

The Service Definition Schema is a structure that contains basic information about a service. See the full schema on GitHub.

Update the service type and language

With Service Catalog metadata schema 2.2, you can specify the type and language for user-defined services or overwrite the auto-detected type and language for instrumented services. Correctly label the service type and language to help other teams further understand what your services do and how to interact with them.
