Grafana
The open observability platform for metrics, logs, and traces
Grafana is the leading open-source platform for monitoring, observability, and data visualization. With 72K+ GitHub stars, it connects to Prometheus, InfluxDB, Elasticsearch, and dozens more data sources. The standard for infrastructure dashboards and alerting.
Why Grafana?
Modern infrastructure generates metrics, logs, and traces across dozens of systems. Each tool has its own dashboard, and correlating data requires manual work. When something breaks, you're switching between tabs trying to understand what happened. You need a single pane of glass for all your observability data.
How It Works
Grafana unifies data from multiple sources into a single dashboard. Query Prometheus for metrics, Loki for logs, Jaeger for traces—all in one view. Template variables make dashboards dynamic. Alerts notify you when thresholds are crossed. Share dashboards across teams with consistent visualizations.
What Is Grafana?
