Grafana

Open dashboards and visualization for observability

About Grafana

Grafana is an open-source analytics and visualization platform best known for turning metrics, logs and traces into clear, shareable dashboards. It connects to data sources such as Prometheus, Elasticsearch, SQL databases and cloud monitoring services, so teams can watch system health, business indicators and application performance on one screen. The hosted Grafana Cloud extends the open-source core with managed metrics, logs, traces, alerting and incident workflows. Grafana itself is free and open source to self-host, and Grafana Cloud includes a genuinely useful free tier with no credit card required, alongside paid plans for higher volumes and enterprise needs.
