Verified 2026-08-18 from datadoghq.com/pricing (high confidence on Infrastructure Pro $15/host/mo annual floor). Free tier for limited hosts. APM, logs, RUM, SIEM, and other SKUs add separate module/consumption lines — TCO is multi-product. 14-day trial commonly documented. No affiliate in inventory. Affiliate economics excluded.
