Actionable Alarms Dashboard

In this dashboard tutorial video, we will walk you through building an Actionable Alarms dashboard. This dashboard provides users with the visibility they need into the status of their SaaS solutions as well as how their end-user devices are performing. Dashboards allow combining both CloudReady and Service Watch data into a single pane of glass for visibility. Utilizing the Alarm widgets, users can quickly identify what issues need to be investigated while quickly being able to access the affected resources for review.

An overview of Grafana SSO: Benefits, recent updates, and best practices to get started

Grafana began as an open and composable platform for data visualization. Today, Grafana has evolved into an all-in-one observability platform, providing everything from infrastructure and application performance monitoring to load testing and incident response. As organizations extend their use of Grafana, efficient and secure authentication and authorization is essential.

Understand your Kubernetes cost drivers and the best ways to rein in spending

In the previous blog post in this two-part series, we discussed the critical signals you need to monitor in your Kubernetes environment to ensure optimal resource provisioning. These signals include high CPU and memory utilization, frequent pod evictions, slow application performance, and other indicators that your resources are over- or under-provisioned. Monitoring these signals is essential for maintaining an efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable Kubernetes environment.

Monitor these Kubernetes signals to help rightsize your fleet

Organizations that run Kubernetes clusters in cloud native environments should do so in a way that’s both operationally efficient and cost effective. However, many organizations don’t prioritize cost optimization until it becomes a pressing need. This may be due to a directive from senior leadership, a significant scale-up or migration of Kubernetes clusters, or an unexpected surge in the cloud bill.

Kubernetes Monitoring Demo: How to Lower Costs and Improve Fleet Efficiency | Grafana

The Kubernetes Monitoring app in Grafana Cloud helps you visualize infrastructure costs across providers, identify unallocated and idle resources, and visualize and optimize Kubernetes resources. In this video, Vijay Tolani shows how to lower costs and improve fleet efficiency with the Kubernetes Monitoring app in Grafana Cloud.

Deep dive into any tile - introducing our Data Explorer

With the release of the Data Explorer, users can now dig into the data behind any tile and slice, dice and explore as needed. This is perfect for those ad-hoc ‘scratchpad’ style scenarios where you want to get some answers without creating yet another dashboard. A couple of weeks ago, we released an awesome new feature that we haven’t had a chance to showcase yet. It’s called The Data Explorer, and I think it’s pretty cool. Let’s dive in!
