Because of where you’re reading this post, I’m going to assume you already know that Grafana is a great tool for visualizing and presenting metrics, and persisting them on dashboards. Ever since the Grafana Loki query builder for LogQL was introduced in 2022, it’s been easy to display and visualize logs, too.
