Summary

Datadog Cloud Cost Management (CCM) is a tool that provides real-time insights into cloud expenditures, enabling government organizations to understand their total cost of ownership, optimize resources, and identify cost changes. By deploying CCM in the Datadog for Government region, public sector organizations can safely rely on it to manage their cloud costs effectively. With CCM, FinOps personnel and platform engineers can correlate costs with performance and usage data to find opportunities for optimization, such as unused resources or unexpected spikes in usage. The tool also provides a unified view of cloud infrastructure usage, breaking down costs by facets including service, region, and host. Additionally, CCM enables agencies to set up custom monitors and dashboards using CCM metrics, which can be easily shared across an organization. By integrating CCM with other Datadog tools, such as Infrastructure Monitoring, APM, Service Management, and Incident Management, organizations can bring together context-rich observability insights and cost data within a unified platform, providing a holistic view of application performance and cost.
