The Learni story

Founded by passionate learning and innovation experts, Learni's mission is to make professional training accessible to everyone, anywhere in the world. Our team operates in major hubs — London, New York, Boston — and internationally, to support talents and organizations in upskilling.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Program

Module 1Advanced Datadog APM Configuration: Agent Setup and Integrations (APM, Profiling, Traces)

Discover expert installation of Datadog APM agents on Kubernetes and hybrid cloud environments, configure profilers for CPU and memory, integrate with CI/CD pipelines through practical exercises on dedicated labs, generate your first distributed trace spans, test basic metrics to validate deployment, and produce an initial application performance report ready for production.

Dive into end-to-end traces with Datadog APM, analyze inter-service latencies via interactive flamegraphs, debug asynchronous calls and gRPC on real e-commerce cases, configure custom tags for advanced filtering, simulate high-traffic scenarios in supervised practical sessions, export actionable insights to Jira tickets, and optimize a microservice chain to reduce response times by 30%.

Module 3Datadog APM Performance Analysis: Profiling and Custom Metrics (SLO, Error Rates)

Master advanced profiling with Datadog APM to identify memory leaks and CPU hotspots, create custom metrics on SLOs and error budgets, visualize trends via collaborative notebooks, apply log-trace-metric correlations on real incidents, test dynamic thresholds in practical exercises, generate automated reports for team reviews, and implement immediate optimizations validated live.

Module 4Datadog APM Alerts and Automation: Pro Dashboards and Runbooks (PagerDuty Integrations)

Design advanced Datadog APM dashboards with dynamic widgets and ML anomaly detection, set up multi-channel alerts linked to PagerDuty and Slack, automate runbooks via synthetics and event management, integrate with Terraform for IaC, simulate incident escalations in collaborative practical sessions, validate end-to-end SRE workflows, and deploy a production-ready setup with unified enterprise monitoring.

Module 5Global Datadog APM Optimization: Advanced Cases and Scaling (Hybrid Cloud, Security)

Address expert cases like scaling Datadog APM on multi-cloud, integrate security scanning and compliance checks, optimize costs via intelligent sampling and retention policies, analyze serverless Lambda workloads, complete a capstone project on a full audit of a critical app, present deliverables in peer review, receive personalized feedback and certification, ready to implement in enterprise the next day.

Evaluation method

  • Daily interactive quizzes on advanced Datadog APM features
  • Real case studies with distributed trace debugging
  • Final certifying project: performance audit of a production application

Learning method

  • Intensive hands-on practice on real Datadog labs in synchronous remote format
  • Hands-on methodology with 70% practical exercises
  • Unlimited access to replays and resources for 6 months post-training
  • Qualiopi certification and Datadog badge for CV

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training Datadog APM - Mastering Advanced Distributed Tracing program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, e-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the Training Datadog APM - Mastering Advanced Distributed Tracing program, the following equipment is required:

  • Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
  • Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
  • Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
  • Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

* contact us for remote delivery feasibility** ratio varies depending on the program

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the Training Datadog APM - Mastering Advanced Distributed Tracing program is performed through:

  • During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
  • End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
  • After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills

Program accessibility

Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
