March 2026: Delivered significant Redis observability enhancements in DataDog/integrations-core, focusing on out-of-the-box dashboard quality and cluster-mode monitoring. Implemented semantic combine mode for the Redis OOTB dashboard to improve metric aggregation and readability, and introduced comprehensive Redis cluster mode metrics via CLUSTER INFO, including cluster state, slots (assigned/ok/pfail/fail), known_nodes, size, and current_epoch. Baked in error handling, tests, and documentation to ensure reliability and clear guidance for operators. These changes enable faster detection of cluster state issues, better capacity planning, and stronger business value through more actionable metrics.
