- droopyEyelids 4y agoNot on purpose, but I could imagine someone at FTX signing up for datadog, configuring it to ingest their logs without doing any estimation or setting up any guardrails and then not checking on it because things were probably crazy over there.
- bmurray7jhu 4y agoDatadog's SEC filings indicated otherwise. Since 2022 Q1, the allowance for doubtful accounts has remained under $6 million. Bankruptcy generally triggers a writedown of any associated receivables, so Datadog appears to not have had any material exposure to FTX or any other bankrupt customer.
