Cockpit is a monitoring and alerting solution designed for multi-source observability. Cockpit allows you to collect, store, and analyze metrics and logs from your infrastructure and applications, giving you insights into your system’s performance and behavior.
Cockpits are scoped per Project.
Cockpit integrates seamlessly with Scaleway’s ecosystem. It provides pre-built dashboards in Grafana, and alerts to monitor other Scaleway resources’ performance.
Additional costs apply for sending custom data to Cockpit. This means that you will be billed for sending data from Scaleway resources that are not integrated with Cockpit, or data from any other external resources.
Custom data is any data that is external to Scaleway, or data from Scaleway resources not integrated with Cockpit. Refer to the dedicated documentation page to find out which resources are integrated with Cockpit.
The retention time for your custom data depends on the pricing plan you have selected.
You will not be charged for querying custom data.
Custom metrics are billed €0.15 per million samples of metrics ingested, per month.
Custom logs are billed €0.35 per GB ingested, per month.
Custom traces are billed €0.35 per GB ingested, per month.
Starting April 2024, Scaleway will apply volume discounts to bill custom metrics. This means that the monthly pricing for custom metrics will be calculated in levels. Scaleway applies six levels of volume discounts.
Levels
Range
Monthly pricing with volume discounts
Level one
From 0 to 10 billion custom metrics
€0.15 per million samples
Level two
From 10 to 25 billion custom metrics
€0.13 per million samples
Level three
From 25 to 50 billion custom metrics
€0.12 per million samples
Level four
From 50 to 100 billion custom metrics
€0.11 per million samples
Level five
From 100 to 200 billion custom metrics
€0.10 per million samples
Level six
From 200 billion custom metrics and beyond
€0.08 per million samples
Here is an example of how you would be billed for sending 52 billion custom metrics samples per month:
Here is an example of how you would be billed for sending 52 billion custom metrics samples per month:
10 billion samples at €0.15 per million samples: €1.500
15 billion samples at €0.13 per million samples: €1.950
25 billion samples at €0.12 per million samples: €3.000
2 billion samples at €0.11 per million samples: €220
Total: €6.650 per month with volume discounts instead of €7.800 without volume discounts.
From January 1st 2025, Cockpit is transitioning away from fixed pricing plans to offer you more flexibility and granularity for managing data retention.
This change allows you to tailor retention settings to your specific needs. We hope to enhance your experience by providing more customizable options without immediate cost impact, as changing data retention period will be free during Beta.
If you have not set up an agent, check out our documentation to find out how to
configure the Grafana Alloy agent, push your data, and visualize it in Grafana.
Sending metrics and logs for Scaleway resources or personal data using an external path is a billable feature. In addition, any data that you push yourself is billed, even if you send data from Scaleway products. Refer to the product pricing for more information.
Soon, a new version of Cockpit will be released. In this version, the concept of regionalization will be introduced to offer you more flexibility and resilience for seamless monitoring.
If you have created customized dashboards with data for your Scaleway resources before April 2024, you will need to update your queries in Grafana, with the new regionalized data sources.
