How to only monitor individual deployment with datadog kubernetes monitoring?

4/27/2020

We want to monitor an individual deployment of datadog. By default, the agent gets installed on all nodes and we start paying for each node as a host. However, we're interested in using datadog to monitor our "agents" running in customer clusters, therefore we only want to monitor that one deployment. Paying 15$ per node for each client would blow up our costs.

Is there a way to only monitor a specific deployment on K8S with datadog and only pay a fee linked to that deployment, not to the size of the entire cluster?
