Anyone here using Datadog?
It’s a wonderful tool, that quickly can become expensive. My client approached me to reduce our logging costs by removing unnecessary sources. The company was feeding logs to datadog from almost every source.
Costs were horrible. Consider 5 TBs of logs. No, not monthly. Daily. That gives roughly 150 TB / month, 1.8 PB a year. Petabytes.
