Agents pull metrics and logs around an incident to speed diagnosis.
Observability
Datadog MCP server
Give AI agents governed access to the Datadog MCP server through one audited gateway. Scoped permissions, full observability, and tamper-evident logs on every tool call.
What is the Datadog MCP server?
The Datadog MCP server is an open Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI agents to Datadog metrics, logs, monitors, and incidents. Through it an agent can query telemetry, search logs, and inspect monitors without bespoke integration code, while the Averta MCP Gateway keeps every action scoped and audited.

Why the Averta MCP Gateway
Centralized governance
Unified authentication, audit logging, and rate control for every Datadog MCP connection.
Observability and control
Real-time visibility into usage, anomalies, and SLA compliance across every request.
One-click deployment
Enable the Datadog MCP server for your AI teams through one governed gateway, with no manual setup.
Enterprise hardening
High availability, security, and compliance alignment turn MCP from a developer utility into production-grade infrastructure.
OAuth and SSO enforcement
Enterprise authentication and SSO applied automatically to every Datadog endpoint.
Shared and per-user auth
Configure service accounts or per-user access, with secrets protected and centralized revocation.
One managed endpoint
Connect agents to Datadog through a single governed endpoint instead of locally run servers, improving your security posture.
Granular tool access control
Allow only the tools each role needs. Enable read-only access and block write tools like create and delete.

Datadog MCP server, answered
Security and setup questions teams ask before connecting the Datadog MCP server to AI agents.
Yes. The Averta MCP Gateway sits between your AI agents and any MCP server, giving each agent scoped, per-agent permissions, applying allow, escalate, or block policies on every tool call, and recording a tamper-evident audit of every action. The “Why the Averta MCP Gateway” section on this page covers what it enforces.
It is as safe as the controls around it. The server exposes production telemetry and monitor controls through one token, so scoping and auditing matter. The Averta MCP Gateway keeps reads automatic and monitor changes behind approval, with every call recorded.
Yes. Tool-level policy lets queries and searches run automatically while muting or editing monitors escalates for approval, all recorded.
Route agents through Averta's MCP Gateway for scoped per-agent permissions, tool-level policy, and tamper-evident audit across every Datadog action.
Yes. Datadog provides an official MCP server for its observability data. Routing it through the Averta MCP Gateway keeps each agent read-scoped where it should be, with monitor changes behind approval and every call logged.
Any MCP-compatible client, including Claude and Claude Code, can connect to the Datadog MCP server. Pointing those clients at the Averta MCP Gateway instead of the raw server adds scoped permissions, approval policies, and a tamper-evident log without changing the client setup.
