The new pay-as-you-go structure charges $0.30 per GB for log, metric, and trace ingestion, with additional fees for queries, pipelines, and advanced features like RUM and error tracking. Existing free-tier customers receive a 30-day exemption period, while current standard-tier customers will have their flat monthly fees removed after 30 days.
