Reliability

Know what is up, and what real visitors get

Two new modules in Engineering put reliability next to cost.

  • Service MonitoringIncidents, objectives, status pageNew
  • Real User MonitoringWeb Vitals, errors, funnelsNew

Service Monitoring

Services, domains and regions across every connected cloud, with incidents, reliability objectives, a public status page and a labelled outage-cost estimate.

  • Confirmed-failure engine and a full incident workflow
  • Monthly reliability reports
  • Cloud provider status matched to your regions

Real User Monitoring

Traffic, pages, devices and sources from your cloud’s own logs with nothing to install, plus Core Web Vitals, errors, funnels and goals from an optional snippet. No cookies, no recordings.

  • Sixteen screens
  • Alert rules and a monthly report
  • Real users beside synthetic checks
Migration and assessment

Assess, plan and move, with evidence

Deploy & Migration now has three screens beyond repository planning.

  1. AssessCloud Assessment
  2. PlanPlayground
  3. MoveMigration
  4. ProveCutover evidence

Cloud Assessment

Score a connected estate and export a board-ready assessment, without deploying or migrating anything.

Migration

Move a workload to another cloud with source and target readiness, waves and cutover evidence.

Cloud Access

What your connected clouds are actually allowed to do, measured rather than assumed.

Move from CloudHealth

Import perspectives, organisation units, roles and policies, then run beside CloudHealth and compare the numbers.

Cloud Playground

Price one architecture on every cloud like for like, seeded from your own estate, with an exportable evaluation report.

Engineering FinOps

What pull requests added, which releases moved spend and which team owns it, with pull request costs and releases beneath it.

Cost control

Budgets, exploration and proof of savings

New ways to plan, slice and prove.

  • BudgetsOver real bills, with forecasts and alerts
  • Cost ExplorerAny two dimensions, saved and scheduled
  • Bill ReviewA finished bill, driver by driver
  • Savings ledgerEvery claimed saving proven against the bill

Budgets

Budgets over real cloud bills by any provider, service, account, region, team or tag, with forecasts, alerts and a ranked, approval-gated response plan for when one breaks.

Cost Explorer

Group spend by any two dimensions or a business mapping, save, share, schedule and export reports, or query with governed SQL.

Bill Review

A finished bill explained driver by driver: what moved, the day it moved, whose it was and what waiting cost.

Savings ledger and goals

Every claimed saving proven against the bill, pending or written off, and savings goals measured against your own baseline.

Commitment Autopilot and Portfolio

Small, staggered Savings Plan and reservation purchases inside a risk envelope you set, and commitments across every cloud as one portfolio with coverage targets.

Software Spend

SaaS licences and AI tools by the seat: idle seats, true-up risk and upcoming renewals.

AI

AI spend with an owner

AI Economics joins AI Infrastructure.

  1. Token and dollar
  2. Service
  3. Team
  4. Business unit

AI Economics

Every AI token and dollar traced to the team, person, service and business unit answerable for it, with a split of why it moved, efficiency, seat tools and controls.

Apex

Now 140 capabilities across 13 screens, including Investigations that rank the causes of a bill change and say how sure Apex is of each.

Governance and security

Write guardrails as code, prove coverage, find attack paths

Controls that can be tested before they are enforced.

  1. Write in CELPolicy Studio
  2. Dry-runOn real PRs and resources
  3. Roll outWith exceptions
  4. ProveEvidence history

Policy Studio

Write a guardrail in CEL, dry-run it on real pull requests and resources, then roll it out. A test lab, live drift, exceptions and evidence history sit beside it.

Lifecycle

A time-to-live and a named owner for temporary resources. Expiry asks the owner before anything stops.

Tag Governance

Value sources, drift and approval-gated remediation for missing tags.

FinSecOps

Threat posture, spend at risk, activity, attack paths and attack surface in one place.

Vendor Risk

Vendors, resilience and monitoring signals: what you would lose if a vendor failed.

Compliance

Findings mapped to controls, plus a data and trust page on how the platform handles your data.

Platform and integrations

More ways to connect, and more control over access

For platform teams and enterprise administrators.

  • Integrations
  • Roles
  • Identity
  • Workforce
  • Marketplace
  • Kubernetes

Integrations

ServiceNow change control for remediation, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry and Datadog beside a cost spike, PagerDuty and Opsgenie paging, and bring-your-own cost data from Snowflake, Databricks, Datadog or CSV, exported as FOCUS.

Roles and service accounts

Roles for people and identity-provider groups scoped to workspaces, clouds or business units, and service accounts with scoped API keys for automation and Terraform.

Identity

Single sign-on over OIDC and SAML, SCIM provisioning, network access limits and a test sign-in before you enforce.

Workforce

24 roles, outcome contracts with service credits and business reviews, and one communications agent for the whole workspace.

Marketplace

List products and services publicly, with a review pipeline and privacy-preserving analytics.

Kubernetes

21 detectors, with data from the native API, a collector, Kubecost, OpenCost or the bundled in-cluster agent.
