Event-Driven Ansible And Datadog

[@brnkstyle]

do people really have eda out on the internet? seems like bad practice security wise

You'd only need external internet access for EDA if the application sending notifications is hosted in the cloud. Most people I've seen deploying EDA today are using internally hosted monitoring tools. But if you are using externally hosted monitoring tools (like Dynatrace or Datadog) you'd need that external access (which you've already provided outbound for those agents) or you'd need Datadog to push alerts to a messaging bus (such as Kafka) that you subscribe to from EDA. If using a webhook, you'd want to add in the API key and firewall rules to permit traffic only from the monitoring platform to EDA for security purposes
