Datadog Governance Console is a centralized interface for managing observability usage, configuration, and hygiene at scale. It provides a Total Org Usage summary to track active users, dashboards, monitors, and product adoption across teams. Per-product insights (e.g., for Log Management) help identify inefficiencies like unused pipelines or untagged assets. A catalog of automated controls handles detection, notification, and enforcement — for example, revoking dormant API keys — with scoped rollouts to manage risk. The goal is to shift governance from reactive cleanup to proactive standards enforcement.
