timeShift(GrafanaBuzz, 1w) Issue 66

All Things Open, a conference focused on open source technologies, was held in Raleigh, NC this week and was bursting at the seams with over 4,500 attendees. Grafana Labs’ own Tom Wilkie gave his RED Method: How to instrument your services talk to a standing-room only crowd. We were excited to speak at and sponsor ATO and look forward to next year.

Make time-series exploration easier with the PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB query editor

Grafana v5.3 comes with a new visual query editor for the PostgreSQL datasource. The query editor makes it easier for users to explore time-series data by improving the discoverability of data stored in PostgreSQL. Users can use drop-down menus to formulate their queries with valid selections and macros to express time-series specific functionalities, all without a deep knowledge of the database schema or the SQL language.
