Custom Metrics Billing

Overview

In general, custom metrics refers to any metrics that are not part of the regular integration suite, for example using custom checks or API-level metrics in your application stack.

• Billable count is based on average number of custom metrics / hour for the month.
• Pro plans include 100 custom metrics per host.
• Enterprise plans include 200 custom metrics per host.
• The number of metrics is averaged across all paid hosts.
• Additional custom metrics packages can be purchased.

Contact Sales or your Customer Success Manager to discuss custom metrics for your account.
