Vantage Launches API and Terraform Support for Datadog and Cloudwatch Business Metric Integration
Blog post from Vantage
Vantage has introduced new capabilities that allow users to configure Business Metric integrations for Datadog and CloudWatch using either the Vantage API or Terraform Provider, enhancing the ease and automation of managing these integrations programmatically. This update alleviates the previously manual and error-prone process of configuring Business Metrics through the Vantage console, enabling customers to efficiently manage, update, and scale Business Metric integrations across environments. Users can now leverage API requests or Terraform scripts to define Business Metrics based on Datadog Queries or CloudWatch metrics, facilitating the calculation of unit costs such as cost per API call or subscriber. The API and Terraform Provider are available for free, and existing configurations via the Vantage UI remain unaffected. This development aligns with Vantage's strategy to provide more streamlined and automated solutions for managing cloud cost metrics, maintaining flexibility through both programmatic and console-based configuration options.
