Datadog, etc are not cheap when you're paying per agent/per month to ship your logs in the first place. Which they want you to do, of course.

The pricing is not per agent per month. The pricing for everyone is always either per million events or per gb.

You do not need an agent. You can ship directly from syslog ( https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/rsyslog/?tab=datadog...)
