A design partner told us the AI Explorer table needed a way to get data out so it could be saved and shared elsewhere. Now you export the whole view in one click, cost, tokens, cache, and model count all included. The values come through as clean numbers, not text you have to scrub. It’s the same pattern as Explorer, so there’s nothing new to learn.

If you pull cost data from a CloudZero Snowflake Data Share, a request for just a few days of data could be surprisingly slow and expensive. Because of how the data was stored, Snowflake had to read far more than the days you asked for. You paid for that in query time and credits.

Kubernetes efficiency metrics now work with infrastructure filters.

Ford's competitors had the same electric motors he did. Most just swapped out the steam engine and kept the old factory layout, a costly mistake. Ford used the new tech to rebuild the plant around the flow of the car. Knowing how much power each machine drew, he knew his cost to produce a car, and made personal automobiles affordable for all.

AI cost observability is the practice of measuring, attributing, and analyzing AI workload costs at the request, model, and workflow level in real time. It connects cloud infrastructure spend, inference and token costs, and business attribution (cost per feature, team, customer, or product) so engineering, finance, and product teams can see where AI spend goes and whether it creates value. On July 14, IBM had its worst trading day since 1987.

Turning off trend comparisons cuts Explorer load times in half on long date ranges.

Organization Settings let you set defaults for the whole org, one time for everyone.

Application monitoring tools track your application's health, speed, errors, and resource usage in real time. Also called APM tools or application performance monitoring software, these tools are essential for any team running production workloads. The leading options in 2026 are Datadog, New Relic, Dynatrace, Grafana, and Elastic APM for traditional workloads, plus Arize AI, LangSmith, and Weights & Biases for AI observability.
