If you’re using Azure AI to build and run LLM-powered applications, you’ll now see those associated costs in GenAI Intelligence alongside any AI spend from other platforms you use.

GenAI Intelligence gives you a single, comprehensive view of AI costs and token usage across your AI stack, including other supported providers like Amazon Bedrock, OpenAI, and Anthropic Claude.

Azure AI usage will also populate GenAI labels, so you can easily build your own reports and allocations on top of this AI spend data. GenAI labels turn provider-specific data into consistent dimensions (like Model, Feature, Media Format) across your AI stack, making it much easier to break down GenAI costs and usage without digging through SKUs and services for each platform.

To get started, explore GenAI Intelligence and use GenAI system labels to explore and allocate your GenAI spend.

GenAI Intelligence is available on all DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ tiers.

For customers sending (or planning to send) Snowflake cost & usage data to DoiT Snowflake Intelligence, key-pair authentication is now supported and required for new connections, and existing password-based LEGACY_SERVICE users must migrate by June 2026.

Snowflake is deprecating password-only LEGACY_SERVICE users, with full removal planned for June 2026. In response, we’ve added support for key-pair authentication. This removes passwords from the flow and gives you stronger security and a cleaner audit trail for your Snowflake connection.

What this means:

• Starting today, key-pair authentication is the only way you’ll be able to set up the Snowflake Intelligence
• If you’ve already set up the integration with a LEGACY_SERVICE user, migrate to key-pair authentication before June 2026 to avoid interruption

To get started, view our documentation on setting up and updating your Snowflake connection.

Are you building GenAI features and services with Amazon Bedrock? 

You can now track detailed AWS Bedrock cost and usage information in GenAI Intelligence (formerly “GenAI Lens”), which gives you a comprehensive view of all your AI costs and usage across supported providers like Bedrock, OpenAI, and Anthropic Claude.

Additionally, your Amazon Bedrock cost and usage data is now included in GenAI system labels, which categorizes your GenAI data into consistent categories (ex. Model, Usage Type, Media Format) across all supported GenAI providers. 

This makes it easier for you to drill down into your GenAI costs and usage across providers without having to filter through service-specific SKUs and resources.

To get started, explore GenAI Intelligence and start using GenAI system labels in reports to drill down into your GenAI spend across reports and allocations.

Customers who have set up the Datadog cost and usage integration for DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ can now self-service update their current commitments for Datadog.

Datadog’s public pricing is often irrelevant once you have a commitment. You might be paying 30–50% less per unit, but that discount only applies once you account for the commitment.

After entering your Datadog commitment information, you will:

• See your real Datadog costs with your contracted discounts applied instead of list pricing.
• Track utilization to understand whether you’re under-consuming or ahead of your commitment.
• Forecast confidently using the actual rates from your agreement to prepare for renewals and avoid over-committing in your next contract.

To enter or modify your commitment details, go to your Datadog subscription details or view the documentation in our Help Center for more information.

You already know the power and precision of our time-based filters in DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ . Today, we're excited to announce that we've extended this capability to your custom dashboards.

Now, you can use a time filter to instantly update every widget on a dashboard. This enhancement lets you zero in on a specific timeframe for your analysis, ensuring all your graphs and reports are perfectly synchronized. No more clicking into individual widgets or reports to analyze specific time frames, just a single, unified view.

By bringing DoiT Cloud Intelligence date filtering to the dashboard level, you can accelerate your analysis and make data-driven decisions faster.

Zero In on Cost Anomalies

When a cost spike occurs, open your custom dashboard and use the time filter to isolate that specific time period. Every widget will quickly update, giving you a complete, multi-faceted view of what happened across all services, helping you find the root cause in seconds.

Accelerate Reporting Cycles

Simplify your showback and reporting process. If you have a dashboard of reports set to "Last Quarter," but want to broaden your view, the new time filters quickly let you do this across all of your widgets.

Validate Optimization Efforts

Easily measure the impact of a recent migration or optimization project. Toggle the dashboard's view between the timeframes before and after the change to get an immediate, consistent comparison of your costs and usage patterns.

Your Home Dashboard now includes four new widgets to complement your existing optimization widgets to give you a complete financial picture for faster decision-making.

What's added:

1. Current month spend: See exactly where you stand with real-time spend data for the current month.
2. Current month forecast: View projected costs based on your current usage patterns to anticipate your month-end spending.
3. Current month savings: Track your realized savings from Flexsave, Spot Scaling, and PerfectScale (coming soon).
4. Security insights: Get visibility into security risks requiring attention, with recommendations for access control, encryption, identity management, and compliance.

With the additional context added to your Home Dashboard, you can better identify what needs attention and prioritize your optimization efforts.

Find your updated dashboard by clicking Home in the top navigation (or whenever you log in to the DoiT console).

We’ve updated Cloud Diagrams to include AWS cost data and heatmaps highlighting your most expensive resources. Now you can see not just how your cloud infrastructure is built, but how much each component costs. 

With cost data available directly in your infrastructure diagrams, you’ll be able to view expensive resources in the context of their architectural dependencies and understand how costs flow through your infrastructure.

Here’s what’s new:

Costs view: Click on any infrastructure component to access detailed cost data, trends, and breakdowns alongside its properties and any groupings (security groups, regions, VPCs, subnets) it’s associated with.

Cost heatmap: Highlight your diagram’s most expensive components over customizable time periods to identify optimization opportunities and understand spending patterns across your architecture.

With cost data accessible from your diagrams, you’ll be able to:

• Optimize costs with full context: The heatmap shows you where to focus optimization efforts while ensuring you understand dependencies before making changes.
• Make architecture decisions with business impact in mind: Understand the financial impact of infrastructure components to make more informed architectural decisions.
• Align teams around shared cost visibility: Finance and engineering teams can now discuss costs while looking at the same architectural view, eliminating potential translation barriers between billing data and technical infrastructure.

Getting timely and effective support is crucial—and we’re always looking for ways to make that easier for you. 

That’s why we’ve redesigned the support experience by deeply integrating Ava, our intelligent AI assistant, into the request process. This upgrade replaces the traditional multi-field form with a streamlined, single-page experience. 

Just describe your issue in plain language and Ava will pre-fill key fields based on what you enter, as well as prompt you to provide additional information if she thinks it’ll help resolve your issue or question faster.

• Simplified input: No more navigating dozens of fields and multiple pages. Now you can submit an expert inquiry request from a single page.
• Automatic classification & prioritization: Ava interprets your message to pre-fill key fields like severity, cloud platform, and product. You can always review and adjust.
• Context-aware guidance for faster resolution: Ava proactively identifies the technical details needed (such as ARNs, instance IDs, or resource names) while you're writing your ticket description. This eliminates time-consuming back-and-forth exchanges, dramatically speeding up the resolution process.
