Join a carefully selected group of IT and engineering minds, at the two Michelin-starred Trivet for this exclusive evening of insight, fine wines, and luxury cuisine; courtesy of Chief Wine Officer, Google Cloud & Datadog. You’ll meet industry experts including Datadog’s RVP for the UK&I, Nick Hewitt, and Bunmi Sowande, Google Cloud’s Head of Customer Engineering. Together you’ll discuss how to achieve your most ambitious targets with a fast, safe approach to observability. Meanwhile, you’ll also enjoy a guided wine tasting from celebrated wine expert, Libby Brodie. Can we book you a seat?
Observability is essential to drive technological innovation, mitigate risk, and generate operational efficiencies. With a single source of truth across observability and security, organisations can have visibility into the performance, health and security of their entire tech stacks, including on-prem and cloud environments in one place. This allows their teams to collaborate with ease—breaking down silos, optimising resource usage, building better customer experiences, and freeing engineers to innovate with emerging tech. That’s how Forbes reduced site load times by 37%, and Statsig dropped IT costs by a massive 80%. At this event, you’ll learn everything you need to do the same.
Key discussion points
- Monitoring the performance of modern and legacy services at every stage of your cloud journey
- Unifying observability and security data to more effectively mitigate threats and break down silos
- Using observability data to optimise spend, accelerate troubleshooting efforts, and introduce new technologies like AI
This exclusive networking experience is open to just 12 IT and engineering leaders from organisations In Greater London. Invite a relevant senior colleague by contacting the Event Director—but spots are filling fast, so book yours now.

Datadog provides customers building on Google Cloud with a centralised platform that offers a unified, end-to-end view of their entire stack (infrastructure, data layer, applications, frontend, etc.). An intuitive user experience and enhanced capabilities – such as artificial intelligence, workflow automations, and pre-built dashboards and alerts – support faster troubleshooting, quick onboarding, and seamless cross-department collaboration. This unified observability across the entire stack also helps organisations maintain the security of their Google Cloud environments by more effectively identifying, prioritising, remediating, and preventing risks. Whether organisations are migrating to the cloud, modernising their stack, or merely trying to optimise costs and consolidate tools, the visibility Datadog provides is indispensable.
