Datadog: Data Jobs Monitoring rebranded under a new Data Observability category
What happened
Between the Dec 29, 2025 and Mar 30, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Datadog moved Data Jobs Monitoring out of the Applications group and into a new 'Data Observability' product category, where it now appears as 'Jobs Monitoring' alongside a Quality Monitoring product. In detail: Data Jobs Monitoring renamed to Data Observability: Jobs Monitoring and split into 3 tiers: Clusters ($0.05/host/hr), Serverless ($0.50/job/hr), Orchestrators ($0.10/job/hr). Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 3, 2026) lists Clusters at $0.05 per host, per hour, Serverless at $0.5 per job, per hour and Orchestrators at $0.1 per job, per hour.
Datadog's previous recorded change was "Datadog Data Jobs Monitoring rebrands to Data Observability with three new tiers" (Week 3, 2026). Datadog has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window New Relic, Dynatrace, Grafana, Elastic and Sumologic also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
