About

Datadog prices APM per host per month in three tiers: APM, APM Pro, which adds Data Streams Monitoring, and APM Enterprise, which adds the Continuous Profiler.[1] Each host licence carries an allotment of 150 GB of ingested spans and one million indexed spans per month; volume beyond that is billed per gigabyte and per million spans at a rate that depends on the retention window, and retention longer than 30 days is quoted by sales.[1] The rates shown are annual-commitment prices with Infrastructure Monitoring attached, standalone and on-demand rates are higher, and fees are payable in US dollars.[1][2]
