Bringing Observability & Monitoring to Cloud Costs

Harness Cloud Cost Management has been integrated into the Datadog UI extension library, providing a seamless way for engineering teams to monitor and optimize cloud costs alongside their usual cloud service metrics. This integration addresses the growing need for developers and operations teams to manage cloud expenses efficiently without switching between multiple platforms. With the new UI extension, users can view crucial metrics such as total and forecasted cloud costs, cost efficiency scores, and top spending clusters directly in Datadog, enhancing visibility and control over cloud expenditures. Additionally, Harness offers advanced features like Intelligent Cloud AutoStopping and deep Kubernetes visibility, which are accessible through the full version of Harness Cloud Cost Management. This collaboration between Harness and Datadog allows teams, especially those with limited experience in cost management, to effectively monitor, forecast, and optimize cloud costs, facilitating a more proactive approach to maintaining budget thresholds and reducing unnecessary spending.
