Which of the following metrics do not consume DDUs?

Kubernetes cluster metrics are considered a special case in data processing within Dynatrace, as they do not consume Data Dog Units (DDUs). This is primarily because these metrics are integral to the monitoring of Kubernetes environments and are typically collected and managed by Dynatrace to provide insights into container orchestration without incurring additional costs related to DDUs.

In contrast, other choices involve different types of metrics that are generally subject to consumption of DDUs based on their data processing and storage requirements. Custom DEM metrics, log metrics, and calculated service metrics reflect specific user-defined measurements and log data, or derived metrics, which contribute to the data warehouse usage and thus count against the DDU limits.

The exclusion of Kubernetes cluster metrics from DDU consumption allows users to effectively monitor and optimize their containerized applications without worrying about additional costs, making it a strategic feature for organizations utilizing Kubernetes.
