Datadog is an SIEM integration. SIEM integrations are used to perform analysis of any SIEM generated alerts, and/or to use generated data as part of investigation analysis.
The Dropzone platform integrates with the Datadog security SIEM. Many customers ingest other alert sources into DataDog (e.g. IDPs) and integrate Dropzone into DataDog rather than the source systems.
