Datalastic · FinOps Profile

Datalastic Finops

FinOps view of Datalastic spend. Cost is a flat monthly (or annual, 10% discounted) EUR subscription that bundles a database-credit allowance - Starter EUR 199/month for 20,000 credits, Experimenter EUR 569/month for 80,000, Developer Pro+ EUR 679/month unlimited, with "+ Add-Ons" tiers at EUR 599/849/949 adding specialty datasets. The variable dimension is credit consumption, deducted per result returned - 1 per vessel or port, 1 per vessel per day of history, up to 500 per radius query - so query design (filters, radius size, history windows) directly drives how far a plan's allowance goes. Failed requests are free, unused credits reset monthly, and the /stat endpoint provides free consumption telemetry.
