Summary

Datadog Cloud Cost Management (CCM) now extends its capabilities to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), enhancing cost visibility and management for engineering teams operating in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. By integrating OCI into its platform, CCM allows users to monitor daily cost insights alongside observability data from other major cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, as well as SaaS services like OpenAI and Anthropic. This integration enables organizations to pinpoint cost-saving opportunities, avoid unexpected cost overruns, and manage unpredictable AI expenses more effectively. The platform offers features such as real-time alerts for unusual spending patterns, support for FinOps Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS) tags, and Datadog Notebooks for collaborative insights into cost optimization. Additionally, CCM's tools for AI cost management, including LLM Observability and GPU Monitoring, provide a comprehensive solution for tracking and optimizing AI-related expenditures. This expansion aims to empower engineering teams with the necessary insights to control costs without compromising application performance, helping them make informed decisions about their infrastructure and services.
