Datadog, Inc., the monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, is introducing Storage Management, helping teams eliminate waste and prevent unexpected cloud object storage spend.
The new product is now generally available for Amazon S3, with previews available for Google Cloud Storage and Azure Blob Storage.
Datadog Storage Management provides detailed insights into cloud object storage at the bucket and prefix levels across billions of objects, according to the company.
With it, teams can catch anomalies in storage growth and access patterns, analyze storage behavior in context, and act on specific, automated recommendations to reduce cloud storage spend faster, the company said.
The product complements Datadog's Cloud Cost Management with a focus on object storage, delivering deeper visibility into usage, cost trends, and optimization opportunities.
"For companies building AI products, data storage and processing is consistently the third-highest contributor to cost—greater than expenses for AI model training and inferencing," said Yrieix Garnier, VP of product at Datadog. "With Datadog Storage Management, teams are empowered to optimize cloud storage costs and prevent unexpected spend. By right sizing these costs, companies can keep their focus on building better products and bringing them to market."
Datadog Storage Management helps organizations optimize cloud storage by providing:
- Granular visibility: Pinpoint cost drivers such as infrequently accessed, temporary or duplicate data across workloads, teams and environments.
- Unified context: Correlate cost, usage and metadata across buckets and prefixes in a single view to confidently enforce lifecycle, tiering and retention policies.
- Proactive anomaly detection and alerts: Quickly identify and respond to anomalous storage growth, cost spikes and unexpected access patterns.
- Targeted optimization recommendations: Accelerate savings with specific, actionable recommendations on where to re-tier, archive or delete data.
