Grafana

Grafana is an open-source tool for visualizing and analyzing data from a wide range of sources. Dashboards let you display, analyze and share key figures from systems, databases and applications in real time. Grafana offers an intuitive interface, numerous integrations and strong community support.

What sets Grafana apart:

  • Central data visualization: metrics, logs and traces from many sources (Prometheus, Loki, InfluxDB, Elasticsearch and many more)

  • Interactive dashboards: customizable panels, drilldowns, filters and time series

  • Alerting and notifications: flexible alerts via email, Slack, Teams or webhooks

  • Open source and extensibility: plugins, community dashboards and API interfaces

  • Unified interface: combined view of infrastructure, application and business data

  • Cloud or on-premises operation: freely selectable hosting options

This makes Grafana a central tool for monitoring, reporting and decision support, in DevOps environments as well as in strategic data management.

Our experience with Grafana in customer projects

We use Grafana extensively in observability. With it we cover both monitoring and logging and run our entire system monitoring on it. At our company, Grafana is the central platform for presenting operational data and key figures visually. Through years of use, we have deep experience in building and maintaining dashboards, in the data management behind them and in combining logs and metrics. We also rely on adjacent components such as Loki and Mimir.

Understanding the strengths and mastering the challenges

We know how to run Grafana in highly available setups, including working alerting and monitoring even during an incident. We are equally familiar with integrating authentication systems, for example by connecting to an existing identity management provider, so that permissions, roles and data sources can be managed cleanly. A common challenge is displaying large volumes of data performantly while keeping dashboards clear and meaningful. Our experience and our understanding of efficient visualization concepts set us apart in this area.

Our contribution to stable Grafana environments

We support the setup, operation and optimization of Grafana systems in a variety of infrastructures. This includes integrating different data sources, automating dashboards, setting up alerting rules and optimizing data storage in combination with backend systems. Beyond technical operations, we make sure dashboards and reports are easy to understand and readily accessible to developers, so that they deliver real value in day-to-day operations.
