“The dashboard ecosystem is unmatched. Prometheus + Grafana is the standard stack for infrastructure monitoring.”
“Cold starts have improved dramatically. For event-driven workloads, Lambda's pricing model is unbeatable.”
“Open source keeps you honest on pricing. Grafana Cloud is competitive with Datadog at a fraction of the cost.”
“Serverless is the default compute model. Lambda's ecosystem and AWS integration ensure its dominance.”
“The LGTM stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir) is a credible open-source alternative to the entire Datadog suite.”
