I only see one option in your original post, but GCP Cloud Operations can be customized on how long you retain logs there, but you will need to balance that out with other teams who may use and require these logs, but you have control over how long you keep the logs there (which is a cost outside of SecOps).
Using the native ingestion to SecOps doesn't add extra costs beyond the above generating and retaining the logs in Operations.
If you export via a custom sink to a GCS Bucket from GCP Operations you will pay for the logs in that bucket, but SecOps won't incur a charge for reading the logs.

So, Direct Ingestion does not incur any additional costs for sending logs from the Cloud Logging bucket to SecOps.

Hi Martin,
do you know where we can find details to generation cost? I can only find this for :VPC Flow Logs,Firewall Rules Logging,Cloud NAT logging but what if i am only sending logs from
Cloud DNS
Cloud SQL
Cloud Load Balancer
Cloud NextGen Firewall
I cant find the cost associated with exporting these logs into secops. Would you know?
