In this document, you'll learn how to monitor Ant Media Servers with Datadog. First, we need to install Datadog. Here is a step-by-step guide to installing your monitoring system.

Step 1 - Install Datadog

Firstly, you need to create a Datadog account in this link. After that just go Integrations / Agent section like this URL: https://app.datadoghq.com/account/settings#agent/ubuntu. Select Ubuntu. Run installation command as below:

    DD_AGENT_MAJOR_VERSION=7 DD_API_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX DD_SITE="datadoghq.com" bash -c "$(curl -L https://s3.amazonaws.com/dd-agent/scripts/install_script.sh)"
```sh

### Step 2 - Configure Datadog settings

**Enable process monitoring:**  
Edit ```process_config``` parameter in ```/etc/datadog-agent/datadog.yaml```

```echo
    process_config:
        enabled: 'true'

Enable network performance monitoring:
Create system-probe.yaml file with example settings.

    sudo -u dd-agent cp /etc/datadog-agent/system-probe.yaml.example /etc/datadog-agent/system-probe.yaml

Add network config parameter in /etc/datadog-agent/system-probe.yaml

network_config: enabled: true
