Monitoring and observability pricing
Observability is metered, not seated: hosts, gigabytes ingested, custom metrics and retention days all carry their own rate, so the bill follows the infrastructure rather than the team. Free tiers are generous on volume and short on retention, and every vendor here publishes a rate card that runs to dozens of line items.
