Datadog: Governance Console added to Infrastructure Enterprise
What happened
Between the Dec 29, 2025 and Mar 30, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: The Infrastructure Enterprise plan's 'Advanced features and administrative controls' list gained a Governance Console bullet alongside the existing Machine learning-based alerts and Live Processes. Pricing is unchanged (Free $0, Pro $15, Enterprise $23 per host/month). In detail: Governance Console added to Enterprise plan. Admin features table expanded with Multiple SAML Providers, Email Domain Allowlist, Data Access Control, and Cross-Org Visibility. Pulse files it as a product change (feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 3, 2026) lists Software Composition Analysis (Runtime SCA) at $10, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Security at $15, Secret Scanning at $15, Runtime Code Analysis (IAST) at $20 and Static Code Analysis (SAST) at $25.
It lands 16 days after Datadog's previous change, "Datadog Software Composition Analysis Adds Edge Device Monitoring at $5/Host/Month" (Mar 26, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Datadog Software Composition Analysis SCA Drops IoT Device Monitoring Add-On From Pricing" (Mar 10, 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.
