Dynatrace has introduced the Dynatrace Platform Subscription (DPS), a flexible and transparent pricing model designed for cloud-native applications that require scalable observability and security. DPS allows customers to make an annual spend commitment at the platform level, granting full access to all capabilities on the Dynatrace platform without hidden fees or monthly commitments. The subscription model is based on extensive collaboration with customers and best practices, offering a simple contract with a rate card for usage pricing. It features an Account Management Portal for detailed insights into consumption, enabling users to manage budgets effectively. DPS also includes hourly pricing for Full-stack Monitoring and Application Security, providing flexibility to scale Dynatrace resources as needed. The model emphasizes transparency and fairness, avoiding ancillary fees and promoting collaboration by not charging per-user fees. DPS is currently available for Dynatrace SaaS environments, with plans to extend it to Dynatrace Managed customers.
