Datadog Cloud SIEM makes workflows free when triggered by security findings
What happened
Between the Sep 28, 2026 and Oct 5, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Cloud SIEM now states workflows triggered from security findings and signals are free (other triggers billed separately); previously 'Workflows are billed separately'. Pulse files it as a product change (feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 12, 2026) lists Cloud SIEM at $5 and Cloud SIEM On-Demand at $7.5.
It lands 70 days after Datadog's previous change, "Datadog Cloud Siem: free investigation allotment metric changed to per-TB" (Jul 27, 2026). Datadog has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Elastic, Grafana, Sumologic and Splunk also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
