Grafana is the visualization layer that ties together the open-source observability stack. It connects to virtually any data source — Prometheus, InfluxDB, Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, CloudWatch, and dozens more — and provides beautiful, interactive dashboards. Grafana's query editor makes it easy to build complex visualizations without writing code, and its alerting system can notify teams via Slack, PagerDuty, email, or webhooks. Grafana Labs also offers Loki for logs, Tempo for traces, and Mimir for metrics, creating a complete open-source observability stack that competes with commercial platforms at a fraction of the cost.
