Grafana Labs is the open & composable observability company. In just over 6 years, our namesake product, Grafana, has become the world's #1 dashboarding service for time series data with over 6 million users. And we've been recognized as a leader in the space. Grafana Labs has built the world's first open & composable observability stack -- and it's natively designed for monitoring hybrid-cloud, container, and microservices environments.

Correlation between metrics, logs, and traces should be as effortless as possible. This helps you make better decisions and actions. The Grafana Labs open-source observability stack enables powerful correlations between your metrics, log, and traces. The key here is to have consistent metadata across the three pillars of observability. Let me demo you how this works in this video.

Grafana Labs just announced Grafana Enterprise Logs or GEL as part of the new Grafana Enterprise Stack. GEL is built on top of Grafana Loki and comes out of the box with enterprise-grade security, administration, and collaborative features. GEL Enables you to offer Loki-as-a-Service for your organization - on a huge scale.

At Grafana Labs, we believe you should unify your data, not your database. We want to help you with your observability, not own it But what if you have multiple teams using multiple open source and commercial solutions? Not a problem. To give an example, here is a quick demo of Splunk, Elastic, and Loki logs combined into one UI in #Grafana This is more than a dashboard; it's a composite panel with transformations of all three sources Your teams should be able to use best-of-breed technologies rather than being locked into one

Loki doesn't index your logs, and that is a very different approach than popular full-text search engines like Elasticsearch or Solr That sounds like a huge constraint. How can you do powerful searches if you don't index the log lines? After this video, you now know how to use Loki's "filter" capability for forensic troubleshooting. Happy searching!

Grafana Loki v2.0 is here. It's an exciting feature-packed release. Loki's slogan - Prometheus, but for logs - is more true than ever before. In today's video, we'll take a quick look at my favorite top 3 features. Loki dashboard animation created by Dave Schmid

Get a sneak preview of a future version of Grafana Loki that enables you to generate ad-hoc metrics from your log data. This video features a Loki-based web analytics dashboard, which uses the access logs of the popular open-source web server NGINX. Every panel on this dashboard uses ad-hoc metrics created with Loki, well, besides the Log panel obviously. Would this be useful for your use-case? Let us know in the comments.

In this webinar, Marcus will show you how to get started using Grafana. He’ll walk you through the Grafana user interface while showing how to set up monitoring for a web service that uses Prometheus and Loki to store metrics and logs. You’ll learn how to connect, explore, and correlate data in Grafana to gain valuable insights into your application. This webinar requires no previous experience with Grafana.
