What happened

Between the Mar 30, 2026 and Jun 29, 2026 captures of Datadog's pricing page, Pulse recorded 3 changes: Added AI Credits as a new priced product, starting at $500 per 500 credits/month ($1.30/credit on-demand), metering Bits AI Chat/Investigation/Code/Agent Builder usage. Added Datadog Disaster Recovery (custom quote pricing) and Managed Platform OTLP (from $0.50/GB ingested spans/month) as new products. Removed AWS Fargate ECS/EKS support from DevSecOps Enterprise's Workload Protection feature list. In detail: Removed AWS Fargate ECS/EKS support from DevSecOps Enterprise's Workload Protection feature list (workload protection for Linux, Windows Kubernetes, and Docker remains); Added Datadog Disaster Recovery (custom quote pricing; automated failover of telemetry to a secondary Datadog site during cloud provider region outages) and Managed Platform OTLP (starting at $0.50/GB of ingested spans per month; OTLP export from managed partners like Vercel, Cloudflare, and Mulesoft) as new products; Added AI Credits as a new priced product: starting at $500 per 500 credits/month (billed annually), or $1.30/credit on-demand. Credits meter usage of Bits AI Chat, Bits Investigation, Bits Code, and Bits Agent Builder. Pulse files it as a packaging change (feature removed, feature added, new plan). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 9, 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.

This quarterly roll-up includes the change Pulse first recorded in a shorter period: "Datadog Software Composition Analysis drops AWS Fargate ECS/EKS from…" (week of Apr 27, 2026, saved May 4, 2026). It also records changes none of that period did (new plan and feature added), so Pulse counts it as a change of its own. Before that, Datadog's previous recorded change was "Datadog Software Composition Analysis: Governance Console added to Infrastructure Enterprise" (Apr 11, 2026). Datadog has been tracked since 2023-11-14.

In the same window Grafana, Dynatrace and New Relic also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
