Convox
Overview
Get metrics from Convox in real-time to visualize your containers’ performance:

Setup
See the Convox documentation to set up Datadog.
Deploy the Datadog Agent
You can deploy the Datadog Agent as a Convox app with a very simple docker-compose.yml
manifest:
# check out the repo
$ git clone https://github.com/convox-examples/dd-agent.git
$ cd dd-agent
# deploy the agent app and secret
$ convox apps create
$ convox env set API_KEY=<your api key>
$ convox deploy
$ convox scale agent --count=3 --cpu=10 --memory=128
Use a count
that matches the InstanceCount
parameter of your Rack.
Auto scaling
If autoscaling is enabled on your Rack, you need to dynamically scale the Datadog Agent count to match the Rack instance count.
See the Listening for ECS CloudWatch Events Tutorial for guidance.
