Datadog raises full-year guidance despite largest customer usage reduction

Datadog reported second-quarter revenue of $1.12 billion, beating analyst estimates of $1.08 billion, with adjusted earnings per share of $0.65 versus expectations of $0.58.

The cloud monitoring firm raised its full-year revenue guidance to $4.46 billion from $4.32 billion and lifted adjusted EPS guidance to $2.52. The company now serves 4,720 customers paying over $100,000 annually, with annual recurring revenue reaching $4.71 billion. CEO Olivier Pomel said the company continues to see healthy customer demand trends, particularly amongst AI-native customers. However, management acknowledged incorporating the largest customer's usage decline into their risk assessment and forward outlook.

CodeRabbit raises $143M to manage AI code explosion with new governance platform

CodeRabbit has raised $143 million in Series C funding led by Atomico and Smash Capital. The round included participation from BMW i Ventures, Datadog, and existing investors including CRV and Scale Venture Partners. The company, which provides AI-enabled code review tools, has launched Agentic Change Management to help organisations manage the growing volume of AI-generated code. The new platform includes three capabilities: CodeRabbit Triage, which scores and routes pull requests based on value and risk; CodeRabbit Change Stack, which visualises a pull request's impact on system dependencies; and CodeRabbit Security, which monitors code after deployment and generates recommended fixes. Co-founder and chief executive Harjot Gill said code changes now originate from across organisations, including developers, non-technical personnel and coding agents, creating a need for expanded governance beyond simple quality reviews.
