I'm curious, do you think it is better to link to a new page on the Vector website here or to link directly to https://www.datadoghq.com/product/observability-pipelines/, like we do in the website header?

From my understanding, /docs/about/what-is-observability-pipelines mostly duplicates the information on the linked DD page.

My 5c: I am in favor of having both as long as the Vector page is short and has links to the OP docs.

Let's add it here to drive more users from Vector to OP, clearly outlining what differentiates OP so orgs we're converting more orgs like like Instacart, Zendesk, Discover, etc who are/were using Vector looks at and buys OP

@barieom I think @dsmith3197 is asking if we should have the OP footer link directly to the OP product page and not whether we want to have the OP footer or not (I misread it too, until just now).

ah thanks for the clarification!

Let's link it to /docs/about/what-is-observability-pipelines

It may seem duplicative, but reason being: for Vector users who end up on vector.dev, we want to be explicit about what the differentiators between OP and Vector are, clearly outlining what OP can do what Vector cannot; case in point, Instacart and Zendesk, who are both heavy Vector users, are planning to buy OP because we released the quotas transform and the ability the enforce a quota across all pipeline instances. We need information somewhere on Vector.dev that calls out the difference between the two. The OP product page on Datadog corpsite, on the other hand, is meant to be a general landing page for everyone, which includes many prospects who've never heard of Vector before

For example, see the last page of these two marketing product briefs: general OP product marketing brief, which we share with most prospects and OP product marketing brief comparing Vector vs OP, which we only share with prospects using Vector already

Yeah, that makes sense given the different purposes. Thank you for clarifying @barieom.

### Traces

A **trace** event can be thought of as a special kind of log event. As of this writing, the components that support trace events are: the `datadog_agent` source, the `datadog_traces` sink, and the `sample` and `remap` transforms.

If you're interested in using traces with a Vector component that doesn't yet support them, please open an issue so we can have a better understanding of what components to prioritize adding trace support for.

I think this could make it clearer that this is a Datadog product.

Thanks! I updated it to Datadog's Observability Pipelines.


Use Observability Pipelines to:

- Manage your pipelines from a control plane. You can build or edit pipelines, whether it is to route a subset of data to a new destination or introduce a new sensitive data redaction rule, and roll out these changes to your active pipelines from the Datadog UI.
- Monitor your pipelines to understand the health of your pipelines, identify bottlenecks and latencies, fine-tune performance, validate data delivery, and investigate your largest volume contributors.
- Better optimize volume and control costs by enforcing quotas, store noisy logs in an archive, and more.
- Scan for and redact sensitive data flowing through your pipelines.
