errorship is not using the datadog eventstream to send all logs to it. Rather, errorship just sends exceptions, their stack traces(and a few other metadata like hostname) to the eventstream.
> although not sure how DD would feel about that
The datadog documentation[1] says; "An event represents any record of activity noteworthy for engineers"[1].
We certainly believe that exceptions that occur in engineer's applications are noteworthy activities and as such belong to the eventstream.

Yep, noted that, and I like how you preserve syntax highlighting in the stack traces :) Out of curiosity, I've only ever dabbled in Datadog, is there any limit on event stream size or retention? I couldn't find anything mentioned in the docs.
- RabbitmqGuy 6y agoI had also noticed the lack of mention in the docs, so I reached out to datadog sometime last year. Their response was that it doesn't have any limits or quota
- tyingq 6y agoInteresting. Is there some disincentive that discourages it? Is it hard (or costly) to query, for example...compared to paying specifically for logging? Seems like a big loophole.
