Grafana Loki is an open source logs database built on object storage services in the cloud. These services are an essential component in enabling Loki to scale to tremendous levels. However, like all SaaS products, object storage services have their limits — and we started to crash into those limits in Grafana Cloud Logs, our SaaS offering of Grafana Loki.
Over the past six months, we have been working on optimizing query performance in Grafana Mimir, the open source TSDB for long-term metrics storage. First, we tackled most of the out-of-memory errors in the Mimir store-gateway component by streaming results, as we discussed in a previous blog post. We also wrote about how we eliminated mmap from the store-gateway and as a result, health check timeouts largely disappeared.
Victor Sonck is a Developer Advocate for ClearML, an open source platform for Machine Learning Operations (MLOps). MLOps platforms facilitate the deployment and management of machine learning models in production. As most machine learning engineers can attest, ML model serving in production is hard. But one way to make it easier is to connect your model serving engine with the rest of your MLOps stack, and then use Grafana to monitor model predictions and speed.
Dashboards are great ways to visualize different KPIs in a single place. Metrics from all over your system can be framed together and viewed on a single screen, helping to correlate them and reducing the overall effort of analysis. But when it comes to Grafana vs. SolarWinds, which one is better? It is often difficult to choose between their dashboarding capabilities. Both tools provide their own visualizations and help bring out interactive dashboards for users to use.
