Summary

Datadog Cloud Cost Management (CCM) enables teams to understand cloud costs by using the FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS), which normalizes cost data from multiple providers into a unified format. CCM automatically tags ingested costs with FOCUS data, making it easier to visualize costs across all clouds and SaaS providers, explore cross-cloud costs with a single query, and upload custom cost data for analysis. The platform provides a unified view of cloud costs and cost trends, enabling teams to gain insights into their spending and make data-driven decisions.
