How we calculate price
Usage-based pricing for full-stack observability—all in one platform.
Transparent and fully in your control
Compute pricing is measured in compute capacity units (CCUs). CCUs are the capacity consumed to complete a successfully run customer-initiated action— such as loading a page or executing a query.
There’s no CCU charge for unsuccessful requests due to service errors or queries run to analyze usage. To further control observability spend, Feature Control Manager lets admins toggle Advanced Compute (aCCU) capabilities on or off—ensuring you invest in features that drive value.
This chart is an example for illustrative purposes only, and represents six months of historical compute usage as it would appear in the usage monitoring UI.
Complete visibility into your consumption
- Track consumption in real-time by product, user, and account
- Set Compute and Data Ingest Budgets with threshold alerts to stay within your limits
- View usage breakdowns specifically for Core Compute and Advanced Compute capabilities to optimize ROI
- Configure alerts to be notified when you're nearing the limit of your shared usage pool each month
Built to flex with how your team works
Compute fits best when per-user tracking has become an operational tax on adoption, or when your usage shifts from month to month instead of holding to a fixed number.
Every engineer gets full platform access, so anyone who needs visibility into your systems has it.
