How do companies actually use Azure DevOps? What are the use cases? We took a look at how the team at SquaredUp uses Azure DevOps to build their CI/CD pipelines and deploy new features to their SaaS product.
Whenever you use open source software, you benefit from the community that surrounds it — whether it’s a bug fix, better documentation, a helpful tutorial or something else. We at Grafana Labs benefit from the open source community, too: from your participation, and the many OSS components we use in the development of Grafana itself. But what makes an open source community successful, exactly? And how do you build and nurture one?
Have you ever wanted to test out Grafana Cloud but don’t have any available data to monitor? Well, have no fear! With the Grafana JSON API plugin, you can query publicly available JSON endpoints. The JSON API is a wonderful way to start using Grafana Cloud. You can quickly see data in action, and there are a multitude of things you can build, analyze, and monitor using the JSON API.
When we launched Pyroscope in 2021, we had one clear goal: Give developers a powerful open source continuous profiling tool for collecting, storing, and analyzing profiling data. Grafana Labs had a similar goal when they released Grafana Phlare, a horizontally scalable, highly available open source profiling solution inspired by databases like Grafana Loki, Grafana Mimir, and Grafana Tempo.
If you’re using AWS, you’re almost certainly using Amazon CloudWatch to collect and analyze observability data from your favorite AWS services. And while AWS remains the most broadly adopted cloud platform, not every company uses it exclusively, which means you need a tool that gives a centralized view across all your environments. With Grafana Cloud, you can do just that.
