Story
Morningstar is based in the United States and runs financials operations at a scale where on-call response cannot live in side channels. On-call rotations were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed incident management and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs incident management on Datadog, with Infrastructure Monitoring as the product on-call rotations actually open. Datadog is an observability platform that unifies metrics, traces, logs, and security signals for cloud applications. For Morningstar, that means on-call rotations can open one workflow, see on-call response, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for on-call response.
