Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Thanks, Yuka, and thank you all for joining us this morning to go through our Q1 results and what was a solid start to the year. Let me begin with a review of our Q1 financial performance. Revenue was $762 million, an increase of 25% year-over-year and above the high end of our guidance range. We ended with about 30,500 customers, up from about 28,000 a year ago. We ended Q1 with about 3,770 customers with an ARR of $100,000 or more, up from about 3,340 a year ago. These customers generated about 88% of our ARR. We generated free cash flow of $244 million, with a free cash flow margin of 32%. Turning to platform adoption, our platform strategy continues to resonate in the market. At the end of Q1, 83% of customers were using two or more products, up from 82% a year ago.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

51% of customers were using four or more products, up from 47% a year ago. 28% of our customers were using six or more products, up from 23% a year ago. 13% of our customers were using eight or more products, up from 10% a year ago. We are pleased to see that customers are adopting more products, and I'd like to highlight two of our newer products with you. First, Flex Logs is off to a fast start and now exceeds $50 million in ARR. Flex Logs has achieved this milestone in six quarters, which is the fastest ramp we've seen to that level, and which echoes its value to customers as well as the size of the log management market opportunity. I'll also note that by adopting Flex Logs, our customers are adding new use cases at the right economics.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

These Flex Logs adopters ultimately spend more on Datadog log management as well as more on our overall platform. Second, our Database Monitoring product is approaching the $50 million ARR level as well and is growing 60% year-over-year. Database Monitoring has now been adopted by over 5,000 customers. We are very excited about the early traction we're seeing there and are doubling down on our investment into broader data observability as we see strong demand signals in that area. We will come back to that in a few minutes. Now, let's discuss this quarter's business drivers. Overall, we saw trends for usage growth from existing customers in Q1 that were in line with our expectations. We are seeing high growth in our AI cohort as well as consistent and stable growth in the rest of the business.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We also had a strong bookings quarter, with particularly strong execution in new logos and larger bookings. Dollar bookings for new logos were up over 70% year-over-year and much stronger than our typical seasonal softness in Q1. On the large deal side, in Q1, we signed a total of 11 deals with a TCV of $10 million or more, up from just one in the year-over-quarter, as we continue to expand our business with larger customers. Finally, churn has remained low, with gross revenue retention stable in the mid to high 90s, highlighting the mission-critical nature of our platform for our customers. Now, moving on to R&D, we continue to see rising customer interest for next-gen AI observability and analysis. At the end of Q1, more than 4,000 customers used one or more Datadog AI integrations, and this number has doubled year-over-year.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

With LLM Observability, we are seeing continued growth in customers and usage as they seek to manage end-to-end model performance, security, and quality. I'll call out the fact that the number of companies using LLM Observability has more than doubled in the past six months. We are adding to Bits AI with capabilities for customers to take action with workflow automation and app builder using next-gen AI to help our customers remediate issues more quickly and move towards auto-remediation in the future. Zooming out, we're making progress on all of our AI initiatives, and you should expect more announcements in this area at DASH, our user conference taking place in June. Moving on to security, our teams have been very busy building our products and features for our customers' DevSecOps needs.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

To give you a quick overview of our capabilities, first, we have a comprehensive set of products to identify and manage vulnerabilities across software and infrastructure. In infrastructure, our cloud security product identifies vulnerabilities in hosts, containers, Kubernetes clusters, and infrastructure as code. Our security customers can use agentless scanning to cover their entire infrastructure stack in minutes. Existing Datadog customers using our lightweight agent immediately gain deep, granular, and timely security visibility. On the application vulnerability side, our code security product identifies vulnerabilities in code from development to production and for first-party code as well as third-party open-source libraries. This product area has launched very recently and already has over 1,000 customers paying for the product. Because we bring visibility to production workloads, we are uniquely positioned to identify which vulnerabilities are most critical in production and break down silos between developers, DevOps, and security teams.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Second, in security, as vulnerabilities face threats and attacks, our threat management product helps our customer identify and remediate them. They can use our cloud SIEM to identify threats in logs, and they can further protect from threats in infrastructure with workload protection and in software with App and API Protection. Finally, our customers use our Sensitive Data Scanner product to discover, classify, and redact sensitive data at scale across their logs, traces, events, user sessions, data stores, code, and all the way to LLM prompts. While we have much more to do, today, we are serving over 7,500 customers with our security products, or about a quarter of our total customer base. Over half of our Fortune 500 customers use our security products, a good sign of our opportunities with the largest enterprises.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Now, moving on from security, last month, we announced our plans to launch our latest data center in Australia. We see a large opportunity to serve our Australian customers and help them meet local data residency, privacy, and security requirements. Finally, we recently announced a couple of acquisitions. First, we acquired EPO, a next-generation feature management and experimentation platform. The EPO platform helps increase the velocity of releases while also lowering risk by helping customers to release and validate features in a controlled manner. EPO augments our efforts in product analytics, helping customers improve user experience and tie feature performance to business outcomes. More broadly, we see automated experimentation as a key part of modern application development, with the rapid adoption of AI-generated code, as well as more and more of the application logic itself being implemented with non-deterministic AI models.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Second, we also acquired Metaplane, a data observability platform built for modern data teams. Metaplane helps prevent, detect, and resolve data availability and quality issues across the company's data warehouses and data pipelines. We've seen for several years now that data freshness and quality were critical for applications and business analytics, and we believe that they are now becoming key enablers of the creation of new enterprise AI workloads, which is why we intend to integrate the Metaplane capabilities into our end-to-end data observability offerings. We are very excited to welcome both the Metaplane and the EPO teams to Datadog, as we have a lot to build together. That is it for our product and engineering.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Our teams are very hard at work this quarter, and we're looking forward to sharing many new products and feature announcements at our DASH user conference on June 10th and 11th in New York City. Now, let's move on to sales and marketing. As I mentioned earlier, we had a number of great new logo wins and customer expansions this quarter. Let's go through a few of those. First, we landed a seven-figure annualized deal with one of the largest U.S. car manufacturers. This customer has a complex hybrid environment, including on-prem, multiple clouds, in-car IoT, and mobile apps. They expect to unify observability across teams and across all their tech stacks while accelerating root cause analysis. They are starting with 13 Datadog products, consolidating a dozen tools, and rolling out to dozens of business units.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Next, we landed a seven-figure annualized deal with a major Latin American bank. They expect to use our unified observability to reduce operational costs and enable autonomy for departments that previously had to depend on specialized teams for visibility. This customer is starting with six Datadog products and is replacing three existing tools. Next, we landed a seven-figure annualized deal with a major American pet supplies company. This customer struggled with tool sprawl and limited user adoption. With Datadog, they expect to save over $1 million every year, both in engineering time and avoidance of lost revenue. This customer is starting with 11 Datadog products, including Cloud SIEM, and is replacing seven commercial tools. Next, we welcome back an insurance tech customer with a six-figure annualized deal. This customer found that their previous observability tool involved manual workflows and customization, high operational overhead, and user frustration and alert fatigue.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

By returning to Datadog, they expect to benefit from Datadog's ease of use and out-of-the-box capabilities while using our built-in usage controls to manage observability and cloud costs. This customer now expects to use Flex Logs, Cloud Cost Management, and on-call among the 10 products they plan to adopt. Next, we signed a seven-figure annualized expansion with one of the largest U.S. health insurers. This customer is using Datadog across dozens of business units to support millions of customers. More recently, they have been using Datadog to significantly improve customer experience and reduce time-consuming and expensive outages. As an example, one team estimated reductions in mean time to resolution from three to four hours down to three to four minutes by using Datadog. With this expansion, this customer is using 17 products in the Datadog platform, including the full Datadog security suite.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Finally, we signed a seven-figure expansion as an annualized contract with a leading next-gen AI company. This customer needs to reduce tool fragmentation to keep on top of its hypergrowth in usage and employee headcount. With this expansion, the customer will use five Datadog products and will replace a commercial tool for APM and log management. That is it for another productive quarter from our go-to-market teams. Before I turn it over to David for a financial review, let's have a few words on our longer-term outlook. We recognize that there are many cross-currents impacting the global economy right now, but our view of our long-term market opportunities remains unchanged. We continue to believe digital transformation and cloud migration are long-term secular growth drivers of our business, as well as critical for every company to deliver value and gain competitive advantage.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We continue to focus on delivering innovation and value to our customers against their mission-critical needs, including their AI efforts. Now, more than ever, we feel ideally positioned to help customers of every size and in every industry to transform, innovate, and drive value through technology adoption. With that, I will turn it over to our CFO. David?

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Thanks, Olivier. Q1 revenue was $762 million, up 25% year-over-year and up 3% quarter-over-quarter. To dive into some of the drivers of Q1 revenue growth, first, overall, we saw trends for usage growth from existing customers in line with our expectations and similar to the second half of 2024. We saw a continued rise in contribution from AI-native customers, who represented about 8.5% of Q1 ARR, up from about 6% of ARR last quarter and up from about 3.5% of ARR in the year-ago quarter.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

AI-native customers contributed about six points of year-over-year revenue growth in Q1 versus about five points last quarter and about two points in the year-ago quarter. We continue to believe that adoption of AI will benefit Datadog in the long term, but we remain mindful that we may see volatility in our revenue growth on the backdrop of long-term volume growth from this cohort, as customers renew with us on different terms and as they may choose to optimize cloud and observability usage. Next, regarding usage growth by customer segment, year-over-year usage growth with our enterprise customers remained healthy, if a bit lower than last quarter, which we see as a product of the volatility that can occur among customers from quarter-to-quarter. Meanwhile, we saw strong booking activity from our enterprise customers in Q1. As Olivier noted, this included some large TCV deals.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

From our SMB and mid-market customers, excluding the AI cohort, year-over-year usage growth was roughly similar compared to last quarter. As a reminder, we define enterprise as customers with 5,000 employees or more, mid-market as customers with 1,000-5,000 employees, and SMB as customers with less than 1,000 employees. Looking ahead to April, our usage growth was consistent with year-to-date trends. As usual, we have contemplated near-term trends in our guidance. Regarding retention metrics, our trailing 12-month net revenue retention percentage was in the high 110% in Q1, similar to last quarter. Finally, our trailing 12-month gross retention revenue percentage remained stable in the mid to high 90s. On new logos, gross new logo additions were roughly the same as in Q1 last year, but dollar new logos increased 70% year-over-year, indicating a higher average land in the SMB, mid-market, and enterprise sectors.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Our pipeline for Q2 is strong and growing healthily year-over-year. As a reminder, our sales pipeline doesn't convert into revenue immediately. Now, moving on to our financial results. Billings were $748 million, up 21% year-over-year. Remaining performance obligations, or RPO, was $2.31 billion, up 33% year-over-year, and current RPO growth was about 30% year-over-year. RPO duration was roughly flat year-over-year. We continue to believe revenue is a better indication of our business trends than billings or RPO, as those can fluctuate relative to revenue based on the timing of invoicing and the duration of customer contracts. Now, let's review some of the key income statement results. Unless otherwise noted, all metrics are non-GAAP. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financials in our earnings release. First, gross profit in the quarter was $612 million, and gross margin was 80.3%.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

This compares to a gross margin of 81.7% in the last quarter and 83.3% in the year-ago quarter. While gross margin remained in the range that we have expected over the long term, our cloud hosting costs rose more quickly than we expected in Q1, as we supported large growth spikes from some of our largest customers. We also continue to innovate with new products and capabilities for our customers, which tend to put downward pressure on gross margins in the short term. While we expect some of the costs to support customers to persist, we are also focused on executing projects to improve our cloud cost efficiency and expect to realize savings throughout the rest of the year. Our Q1 OpEx grew 29% year-over-year, similar to the 30% last quarter and roughly as expected, as we continue to execute on our hiring plans.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

As we have spoken about in previous quarters, it has been our plan to grow our investments to pursue our long-term growth opportunities. We have been successful in increasing sales rep headcount with over 25% year-over-year growth in total reps, including over 30% growth year-over-year in enterprise reps. This investment has been weighted a little bit towards international expansion, where sales rep headcount growth was in the mid-30% year-over-year. We believe that there is white space to support this growth and that we will keep seeing results as this capacity ramps, as we have in the past. In addition, we grew our R&D headcount by over 30% year-over-year, with R&D expense as a percent of sales at 30% in Q1, so we can deliver on the rapid pace of innovation for our customers.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

As always, we continue to prioritize our investments to balance near-term adjustments with our long-term plans and continue to look for opportunities to optimize our operating costs. Q1 operating income was $167 million for a 22% operating margin compared to 24% last quarter and 27% in the year-ago quarter. Now, turning to the balance sheet and cash flow statements, we ended the quarter with $4.4 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Cash flow from operations was $272 million in the quarter. After taking into consideration CapEx capitalized software, free cash flow was $244 million for a free cash flow margin of 32%. Now for our outlook for the second quarter and the full fiscal year 2025. First, our guidance philosophy overall remains unchanged. As a reminder, we base our guidance on trends observed in recent months and apply conservatism on these growth trends.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

For the second quarter, we expect revenue to be in the range of $787 million-$791 million, which represents 22%-23% year-over-year growth. Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $148 million-$152 million, which implies an operating margin of 19%. As a reminder, in Q2, we will be hosting our DASH User Conference, which we estimate to cost about $13 million, and which we have reflected in our operating income guidance. Non-GAAP net income per share is expected to be $0.40-$0.42 per share based on approximately 361 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding. To note, our weighted average diluted share count is expected to decline sequentially as the shares related to the 2025 convertible note will be removed upon redemption.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

For fiscal year 2025, in total, we expect revenue to be in the range of $3.215 billion-$3.235 billion, which represents a growth rate of 20%-21%. Now, we have raised our 2025 revenue guidance range by $40 million related to the previous guidance, which incorporates higher revenues in the first half of 2025 based on our Q1 results and our visibility as of today into Q2. Our implied guidance in the second half of 2025 is roughly unchanged. Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $625 million-$645 million, which implies an operating margin of 19%-20%. Relative to our previous operating income guidance range of $655 million-$675 million, the difference is mainly due to lower gross profit as a result of the previously discussed lower gross profit margin, offset by higher revenues.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

As we said before, we're focused on executing cost efficiencies in our cloud costs and believe our gross margins will remain in our historical range. Overall, plans for OpEx investment are roughly unchanged, with continued investment in hiring across R&D and sales and marketing. There are some changes of distribution within that. We expect $15 million of higher international costs due to currency rate changes and $10 million in net expected additional costs from our recently announced acquisition, offset by other OpEx savings. Non-GAAP net income per share is expected to be in the range of $1.67-$1.71 per share based on approximately 362 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Finally, some additional notes on the guidance. The remaining approximately $635 million principal of our 2025 convertible notes will mature in June, and we expect to redeem this mainly in cash.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

We estimate that the GAAP purchase price from our Q2 acquisition activity will be about $180 million, of which we estimate about $110 million to be paid in cash during Q2. We expect net interest and other income for the fiscal year 2025 to be approximately $140 million, and we expect cash taxes to be about 1% of revenue, or about $30 million-$35 million. We continue to apply a 21% non-GAAP tax rate for 2025 and going forward. Finally, we continue to expect capital expenditures and capitalized software together to be in the 4%-5% of revenue range in the year. To summarize, we are pleased with our execution in Q1. We are well-positioned to help our existing and prospective clients with their cloud migration and digital transformation journeys. I want to thank Datadogs Worldwide for their efforts.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Now, with that, we'll open the call for questions. Operator, let's begin the Q&A. Thanks.

Operator

Thank you. At this time, we will conduct a question-and-answer session. As a reminder, to ask a question, you need to press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please stand by while I compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from Mark Murphy from JPMorgan. Please go ahead.

Mark Murphy
Mark Murphy
Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at JPMorgan

Thank you so much, and congratulations on a great performance. Olivier, we noticed the CEO of Anthropic recently said that within 12-18 months, AI is going to be writing 100% of all code. I'm sure there's a bit of hyperbole there, but directionally, it's intriguing.

Mark Murphy
Mark Murphy
Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at JPMorgan

Can you comment on the opportunity that might open up for Datadog if that sheer volume of applications being put into production starts to rise because AI writes so much code so rapidly? Does that AI-generated code require more or less monitoring than human-written code? I have a quick follow-up for David.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah, that's a great question. There's definitely a big transition that is happening right now. We see the rise of AI-written code. We see it across our customers. We also see it inside of Datadog, where we've had very rapid adoption of this technology as well. While I don't think this is going to replace all our software engineering, and I'm pretty sure that Anthropic is still hiring software engineers too, I do expect big changes to come to the way software is being shipped and being run this way.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

The way we see it is that this means that there's a lot less value in writing the code itself. Everybody can do it pretty quickly. You can do a lot of it. You can ask a machine to do a lot of it, and you complement it with a little bit of your own work. The real difficulty is in validating that code, making sure that it's safe, making sure it runs well, that it's performant, and that it does what it's supposed to do for the business. Also, making sure that when 15 different people are changing the code at the same time, all of these different changes come together and work the right way, and you understand the way the different pieces interact in the way.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

The way we see it is this moves a lot of the value from writing the code to observing it and understanding it in production environments, which is what we do. A lot of the investments we're making right now, including some of the acquisitions we've announced, build towards that and making sure that we're in the right spot so we can tell you exactly what every piece of code you've written, make sure that it works well, you understand it well, and it does what it's supposed to do for the business.

Mark Murphy
Mark Murphy
Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at JPMorgan

Okay. Okay. Very interesting. And then, David, it's just amazing. The booking stats are so impressive. 11 deals over $10 million, only one a year ago. These big AI numbers, the combination there, it's just incredible. What do you attribute that level of booking strength to?

Mark Murphy
Mark Murphy
Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at JPMorgan

It's a quarter where you have the specter of a trade war, and it seemed like it was weighing on business confidence. I'm wondering if you can comment on the booking strength.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah. We entered the quarter with strong pipeline, and I think it's consistent with our investments we're making in go-to-market, where we're increasing our investments in enterprise and across the board. We've been good about proving value to clients across the platform, allowing us to land larger, as you saw, consolidate, and add more value. I think that much of this is related to product strength and expansion of quota capacity.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. Look, like everybody, we read the news and we look hard for any signs of trouble in our customer base. We haven't seen that in the deal-making so far. Our sales cycles haven't been affected. Our pipelines are growing healthily.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

I can tell you that at least one of the customers we mentioned in the call, one of the new lands, is also a company that is very affected by the tariffs and is having to moderate its own plans for the future. I think what this tells you is that cloud migration and observability, in particular, are deflationary for these companies, and these are tools that help them save money and move faster. We are on the right side, basically, of the problem for them.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

To echo a little bit what Oli said in our prepared remarks, we continue to see that. We said we have in Q2 the same quality of pipeline higher than last year. We continue to have that situation.

Mark Murphy
Mark Murphy
Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at JPMorgan

Excellent. Great to hear. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. One moment before our next question.

Operator

Our next question comes from Sanjit Singh from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Sanjit Singh
Sanjit Singh
Executive Director at Morgan Stanley

Great. Thanks for taking the question and congrats on the quarter. I wanted to pick up where Mark left off. As we talk about kind of the core drivers, digital transformation, cloud migrations, what are the trend lines on the cloud migration side? It seems to, based on your comment, Oli, it sounds like that's likely or could actually pick up potentially going into a lower economic environment. In terms of just what we've seen through the early parts of the year, what are the trend lines on core cloud migration?

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

It's very consistent. It's consistent with what we've seen before. It's also consistent with what you've heard from the hyperscalers over the past couple of weeks. I would say it's a steady, unremarkable.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

It's not really trending up, not trending down right now, but we see the same desire from customers to move more into the cloud and to lay the groundwork so they can also adopt AI because digital transformation and cloud migrations are prerequisites for that.

Sanjit Singh
Sanjit Singh
Executive Director at Morgan Stanley

Awesome. I want to talk a little bit about some of the additional expansion opportunities into data observability. I mean, that's been a space that's been talked about, sort of buzzed the last couple of years. I'm not sure it's gotten super big just yet. Maybe just some of what the vision is about moving into data observability and how consequential of an opportunity could it be for Datadog?

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

It's a space we've been watching for a while.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Initially, we were worried that this was maybe a little bit too small in the impact because if we're just talking about debugging the availability of reports for executives, it's definitely valuable, but we thought it might be a smaller market opportunity in the end. What we see, though, is that the field is evolving into a big enabler, or it can be the opposite of an enabler if you don't do it right, for building enterprise workloads, for building AI workloads, sorry. In other words, making sure the data is being extracted from the right place, transformed the right way, and is being fed into the right AI models on the other end. We are building towards that with the acquisition of Metaplane, which was just announced. Just to help you fit that into what we're doing, we already had some building blocks for data observability.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We built a data streams monitoring product for streaming data that comes out of queues, such as Kafka, for example. We built a data jobs monitoring product that monitors Spark jobs and large data transformation jobs. We have a database monitoring product that looks at the way you optimize queries and optimize database performance and cost. By adding data quality and data pipelines with Metaplane, we have a full suite, basically, that allows our customers to manage everything from getting the data from their core data stores into all of the products and AI workloads and reports they need to populate with that data. We think it's a big opportunity for us.

Two quick questions, actually more for David this time. David, if you think about the guidance, I know you've always been a conservative team. You raised it more than the Q1 beat. Obviously, you've kind of seen good trends in Q2 there as well. What was the thinking process in terms of kind of showing us that upside that you kind of might expect in Q2 versus kind of buffering that and just kind of given the uncertain environment? That's the first question. Second question is on the gross margin change for the full-year guidance. Can you just remind us, obviously, that's three months after you guided the first time. Can you remind us a little bit what you saw there and what's the action that you're taking there to kind of change that? Thank you.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

On the first question, we have not changed any of our strategy towards guidance. We look at the recent trends. I think it is important to note that we obviously beat in Q1, and we sort of looked at the run rate and still discounted the current growth rate. We still put the conservatism into Q2. This was the result of the guide. It indicates the pace of business and where we are, but still discounts the trends as we always do. Another thing that is important to note is because of the uncertainty in the market, we left the second half of the year unchanged. We essentially have done that. There is no change in our strategies that we do all the time, but as we go out more in time, we have less visibility. I think there is no change in philosophy.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

It's just sort of a follow-through on our run rate. In terms of gross margin, as a reminder, we've always said that our gross margin would fluctuate within the range. We've been in the range of the upper 70s to low 80s for a long time. We sort of designed the business that way. At some times, we're going to lean into investment, and in some cases, we'll optimize. In Q1, as we talked about, we did lean into investment, and we also had a little more of a spiky pattern from our customers, which we're learning about. We're learning as we grow in size how to deal with that. From those learnings, we feel like on that, we can do a better job in provisioning. As we always said, we run in the spectrum.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

I think there were higher cloud costs than we expected. It is largely due to those two factors. We said some of that will persist, and some of it we will work on optimizing. This is no different than on that sort of pattern that we have over time of growth and then optimization. Oli?

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. Just to echo that, we have the same engineers basically shipping functionality and optimizing performance. There is a certain range of margin we are comfortable with. I would say last year we were very comfortable with our work. Now we are getting a little bit less comfortable with what we have seen over the last quarter. We are shifting some resources towards optimization so we can ride that.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

As David said, in addition to shipping a lot of new functionality that might not be as optimized out of the gate as the rest in terms of the system utilization, we also saw some spiky growth from some of our largest customers. That might continue, especially as they deploy new workloads. Our job is to optimize, and we feel very confident that we can remain in the range we've been in before for gross margin or even better in the future. There's no question about that.

Hi. Thank you very much for taking my question. Oli, one for you and one for you, David. Oli, when you look at the AI market, certainly it looks like we're about to move from training into inference.

Kash Rangan
Kash Rangan
Managing Director, Co-Head of TMT Business Unit and Software Sector Analyst at Goldman Sachs

Where does it leave Datadog from a product perspective where it can add more consistent value without being optimized? And one for you, David. As you look at the stepped-up research development, sales marketing investments, how from a financial perspective are we to see the incremental benefit of those incremental investments? Thank you so much.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. On the workload turning more towards inference, there's definitely more product to build there. We built an LLM Observability product that is getting increasing usage from customers as they move into production. We think there's more that we need to build both down the stack that closes the GPUs and up the stack that closes the agents that are being built on top of these models.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

You should expect to hear more from us at our conference on those topics because there's quite a bit that is emerging as a set of needs from customers as they move towards inference.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

On the investments, I think you're seeing it. We're trying to report on it regularly when we're making disclosures of being over $50 million or being around $50 million in database and then in Flex Logs. That is the evidence of being able to monetize the investments in R&D and continue to do that in the various product offerings. That's how we look at that. We've gotten a lot of evidence over the years and continued report on that.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

We always said that the investment for R&D takes two, sometimes three years to realize itself because of building in products, but we're reporting on investments that we made previously and the result of that in products. In sales and marketing, it's the same thing where we identify end markets or customers, which we haven't covered, feel like we can add additional capacity. There we have to go through the ramp period. The increase of capacity that we've been executing on, we said will pay back in sort of the year plus as we ramp our reps and get returns, and we'll continue to report on that.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. Just as a quick anecdote, we talked about Database Monitoring as a product that has taken off. That's really a product that shows the power of the platform.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We have a product that is over $50 million or closing on $50 million in ARR with a large number of customers. That is a product that was built basically by 10-15 people. That is just the ability for a small team to build on top of our platform and on top of all of the existing services we have that already collect customer data and deliver the data to them and to make a large difference in terms of revenue in a short amount of time.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Jake Roberge from William Blair. Please go ahead.

Jake Roberge
Jake Roberge
Equity Research Analyst at William Blair

Yeah. Thanks for taking the questions. Could you talk a little bit more about what you are seeing with the AI native cohort? Sounds like growth remains solid in that segment, but still some potential for optimization there.

Jake Roberge
Jake Roberge
Equity Research Analyst at William Blair

Could you talk about what you're seeing from some of those AI native contracts that have already come up for renewal and just how those conversations have been trending?

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. I mean, all the contracts that have come up for renewal, they're healthy. The trick with the cohort is that it's growing fast. There's also a revenue concentration there. We now have our largest customer in the cohort, and they're growing very fast. On the flip side of that, we also have a larger number of large customers that are also growing. I think we mentioned more than 10 customers now that are spending $1 million or more with us in that AI native cohort, and that are also growing fast.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

When you add up all of that, the number of newer customers that are growing fast and some concentration on one customer is larger than the others, there is definitely some potential volatility there, and we want to be careful. We've seen that movie before. We've seen that with the cloud natives a few years ago as they were growing very, very fast out of COVID, and they had to optimize after that quite sharply. Now, of course, the situation is different. It's a small part of our business today, whereas a very large part of our business was cloud natives a few years ago. We want to be mindful of what might happen next. That's also part of how we incorporate that revenue and its growth in terms of our guidance for the rest of the year.

Jake Roberge
Jake Roberge
Equity Research Analyst at William Blair

Okay. That's helpful.

Jake Roberge
Jake Roberge
Equity Research Analyst at William Blair

Great to see the strong ramp in Flex Logs over the past year. Can you talk a little bit more about what you're seeing in the log management market specifically? We've definitely been hearing about some more disruption at the start of the year from the recent acquisitions in the space. Just curious if you're seeing an even more meaningful opportunity on that front this year.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Oh, we see tremendous opportunity there. We validated that Flex Logs was really solving a big problem for customers. We've also validated the fact that this was net new use cases for us. This was not really just a cheaper product that can be balanced with the rest of what we have. We do see customers adopting Flex Logs and then consuming a lot more of everything after that. This is great for us.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We also see a ton of opportunity to displace some existing players in log management. We've built a lot of functionality towards that to close whatever gap in functionality or specific implementation of functionality that might have been perceived by customers on that end. We see a ton of opportunity there. One of the reasons we're growing the sales capacity in the way we are currently is that we see those opportunities in the market. We see great return on investment when we deploy more sales capacity to go after them because these tend to be large enterprise opportunities that require some sales capacity. We intend to fully capitalize on that. We're super bullish about this.

Gregg Moskowitz
Gregg Moskowitz
Managing Director at Mizuho

Okay.

Gregg Moskowitz
Gregg Moskowitz
Managing Director at Mizuho

Thank you very much for taking the questions. I have two. I'll just ask them concurrently. First, the AI native cohorts, getting back to that, so the percentage of total ARR coming from this cohort rose really impressively. Just so that we have a little better understanding of this dynamic because Oli just mentioned or referenced customer concentration. Can you say if the increase from a percentage basis was driven by perhaps one or two of these larger customers or were they broader-based than that? Secondly, for David, just given the second-half step-up in sales and marketing investment that we saw last year at Datadog that seemed to have continued into 2025, how is your productivity tracking at this stage compared to your expectations? Thank you.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Revenue to AI? Yeah.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

I mean, look, on the AI side, we do have, as I mentioned, one customer large and the others there that are contributing more to your revenue than the others. We see growth in the rest of the cohort as well. Again, fairly typical. We've always had in every single one of our SaaS growth cohorts, we do have some form of revenue concentration. I remind you that a small fraction of our customers are the ones that pay us more than $100,000 of ARR, and they represent almost 90% of our revenue. That is sort of how the business is structured. We are careful about the size and the rate of growth of those customers there, which is also why we call attention to potential volatility there in the future.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah. On sales, that's something we watch a lot.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Once the reps are ramped, we look at productivity. Do we have productivity from those added that are similar? The answer is yes. It is due to where we're putting the reps. We're not doing it sort of in a non-targeted way. We're looking at territories. When we see ramps reps, reps ramp, that's a hard one. We see similar productivity, and that gives us the signal that we are doing the right thing and we can continue to add additional reps.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Just as a quick reminder, when you think of upgrading capacity, I think it's a little bit different for sales than it is for engineering. For engineering, you can do it in a top-down fashion. You can decide how much you're going to grow the team, and then you can distribute your engineers on different types of products after that, more or less.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

On the sales side, you need to do it in a bottom-up fashion because you need to understand which territories can carry how many new reps, which ones have the right productivities, which ones have the right market opportunity, and where you're going to put people. It is not as easy as saying, "We're going to grow the team by 30%." You actually need to figure out who's going to go where and who you're going to grow the teams and who you're going to make everyone successful. We have done the hard work for doing that. We have done it for many years now. The growth and capacity we are seeing today is the result of that.

Brent Thill
Brent Thill

David, on the 25%-30% sales capacity that you're seeing now, is that what you're continuing to plan for for the year? Do you expect that growth rate to fade as you get into the back half of the year? Just give us a sense of the shape of that quota carrying ramp in 2025. Thanks.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

We're continuing doing that. What we see is that the ramp capacity, because we essentially have this 6-month, 12-month ramp, if our plans are realized, the investment in headcount will translate into a higher ramp capacity increase. That's dependent upon getting the right people, training and enabling the right people, and retaining them. That's the idea, and we're hopeful for that.

Kirk Mattern
Kirk Mattern
Analyst at Evercore ISI

Yeah. Thanks very much.

Kirk Mattern
Kirk Mattern
Analyst at Evercore ISI

Yeah. Thanks very much. Good morning, guys. Oli, can you just talk about whether you've seen any discernible change in terms of the AI natives that you're working with in terms of what you're helping them with? Meaning, I assume its majority is training at this point in time, but I was curious if you're seeing inferencing come into the equation in a bigger way, or even if some of your bigger enterprise customers are starting to think a little bit more about inferencing, just trying to get a sense on where we stand on that front. Thanks.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

For the AI natives, actually, what we help them with mostly is not training. It's running the applications and their inference workloads in a customer-facing because what training for the AI natives tends to be largely homegrown, one-off, and different between each and every one of them.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

We expect that as and if most other companies and enterprises do significant training, that this will not be the case. This will not be one-off and homegrown. Right now, it is still the AI natives that do most of the training, and they still do it in a way that's largely homegrown. When we see growth on the AI native cohorts, that's growth of AI adoption because that's growth of customer-facing workloads by and large.

Kirk Mattern
Kirk Mattern
Analyst at Evercore ISI

Okay. Just one follow-up, maybe this for David. I realize you guys are in investment mode right now. I'm just kind of curious internally, how do you think about AI from an efficiency perspective? Meaning, I think Oli addressed it a little bit on the R&D side, but we've seen from other software companies that they are starting to see real yield in terms of using AI internally.

Kirk Mattern
Kirk Mattern
Analyst at Evercore ISI

That might be masked with you all, given just the growth rate on your investments right now. I am just kind of curious how you think about that perhaps longer term relative to where your margins are today versus where they could be over a longer period of time. Thanks.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah. For right now, I think we are seeing the returns in productivity, whether that be salespeople getting more information or R&D. We are essentially trying to create an environment where we are encouraging the various departments to use it and learning from it. Long term, there might well be efficiency gains, but there may be efficiency gains that could be manifested in headcount. Right now, we are essentially trying to make the headcount investment that we are making more efficient and more proper.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Remember, we are constrained by sales capacity, and we are constrained by engineering capacity.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Any gain of productivity we gain right now, I'm basically reinvested in producing more, whether that's on the revenue side or on the product and engineering side. Long term, obviously, we're strong believers in the fact that AI is a big driver of efficiency. We can see how it can be if you squint, you see that it can be 10x cheaper to produce the same amount of software and things like that. I think we definitely are headed there.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Howard Ma from Guggenheim. Please go ahead.

Howard Ma
Howard Ma
Analyst at Guggenheim

Thanks for taking the question. I was hoping you guys could reconcile the consumption downtick in the enterprise segment versus the strong new logo ARR growth that, I believe, you said was over 70% year-over-year. Thank you.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. I mean, there's no contradiction there.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

I think there's always variability in the usage. We see that month to month. We see that quarter-to-quarter. What we see there is within the bounds of that.

David Obstler
David Obstler
CFO at Datadog

Yeah. Obviously, we take a strong look. I think the first one is what we talked about already, which is product sales capacity, winning market share in the market. The second one is we've always said we have some volatility now. Back when we had the post-COVID, we saw some correlation around broad parts of our customer base indicating there were broader trends. In this case, we've looked at it and it's sort of volatility of usage, but not a broad trend.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Yeah. Remember also when we say we have strong bookings, it takes time for bookings to turn into revenue for us.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

For example, when we have a great new logo deal, we have mentioned a few on the call, that usage will take many months to materialize, and revenue will take months to materialize. Then the back end of that, we expect to see it go far beyond what was the initial land with those customers. There is definitely a timing effect there.

Let me try this. Philosophically speaking, customers optimized in 2022 and 2023, are they still operating at fairly optimized levels?

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

Customers, I think, are running tighter optimization cycles now. We don't think the vast majority of customers build as much overhang of unoptimized usage that they need to come back to later. We do still see the same regular cycles, right? Typically, when they renew their cloud commitment or when they renew their observability commitment is when they're going to look at what they need to optimize and come back to it. We think, in general, that that cycle has become much tighter for customers.

Matt Hedberg
Matt Hedberg

Brad Reback
Brad Reback
Managing Director at Stifel

Great. Thanks very much. Oli, there's been growing kind of customer focus on bring your own cloud. How should we think about your—well, I should—what do you think philosophically as it relates to that, maybe on-prem workloads in general? Thanks.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

I think it's two different things.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

There is on-prem workloads because some customers still have a lot of large on-prem workloads that are not going anywhere, and we're seeing that. We have new product offerings that go squarely after that. We can cover from the cloud their on-prem workloads in a way that is cost-effective for them and that they can use in conjunction with the monitoring of their on-prem environment. That is one thing, and we're addressing that. We see a big opportunity there. The second thing is the desire for customers to run on their own infrastructure, whether it's clouds or some on-prem version of a cloud. We think there's definitely a future where that becomes more important, especially if there's more geopolitical separations between the various parts of the world. Philosophically, we go wherever customers want us to go.

Olivier Pomel
Olivier Pomel
Co-Founder and CEO at Datadog

If that's the way they want to consume software in the end, that's definitely the way we're going to deliver it. We are testing right now some ways for customers to manage part of their data directly on their own cloud. We have a new product that is being in customers' hands for that. If we see a strong market pull for that and if we see the world going in that direction, we'll definitely lean harder into that. For us, this can be a big opportunity in the future.

Yes. All of the above. That's good. Look, I'm happy this number is high, but the reality is that it's consistent. It's sometimes a bit lower, sometimes a bit higher. All of our customers are going up the curve with us as they consolidate more and more of what they're doing into a platform and bring us more and more of their workloads, and they go with us. Of course, we're also very happy to see some customers coming back. One customer we mentioned on the call here had decided to sort of build their own using some commercial open source, and they decided to come back. It's a motion we do see.

Olivier Pomel
