GrafanaCONline 2022: A guide to all the big announcements from Grafana Labs

We have lift off! GrafanaCONline 2022 officially launched today with the opening keynote featuring Grafana Labs CEO and Co-founder Raj Dutt, Chief Grafana Officer and Co-founder Torkel Ödegaard, and Senior Engineering Manager Myrle Krantz. Along with previewing the much-anticipated release of Grafana 9.0, we revealed some exciting news for our open source community. Below is a summary of all the major headlines that mark one small step for Grafana, one giant leap for the Grafana community.

Grafana 9.0: Prometheus and Grafana Loki visual query builders, new navigation, improved workflows, heatmap panels, and more!

GrafanaCONline, our annual community event designed for Grafana open source users and dashboarding enthusiasts, also marks the general availability of Grafana’s latest and greatest release. Grafana 9.0 is now available to both open source and Grafana Enterprise users, and is being rolled out to Grafana Cloud users incrementally. (The majority of instances have already been upgraded!) New Grafana Cloud users will immediately get the Grafana 9.0 experience.

Grafana Alerting: Explore our latest updates in Grafana 9

Grafana 8 marked a major redesign in the way we do alerting. We created a unified alerting experience that implemented a workflow that operates across all of our products and combined Grafana panel alerts and Prometheus-style alerts into a single pane of glass. We built this as an open source feature first to make sure you could opt in and try it out from day one, regardless of which flavor of Grafana (OSS, Cloud, or Enterprise) works best for you.

Introducing Grafana OnCall OSS, on-call management for the open source community

Last November, we announced the launch of Grafana OnCall, an easy-to-use on-call management tool that helps reduce toil through simpler workflows and interfaces tailored for developers. Born out of Grafana Labs' acquisition of Amixr Inc., Grafana OnCall began as a cloud-only solution that became generally available to all Grafana Cloud users, on both paid and free plans, in February.

A quick guide to load testing Grafana Loki with Grafana k6

As a software engineer here at Grafana Labs, I’ve learned there are two questions that commonly come up when someone begins setting up a new Loki installation: “How many logs can I ingest into my cluster?” followed by, “How fast can I query these logs?” There are two ways to find out the answers.

How I installed Grafana Mimir on my homelab cluster

When I started at Grafana in January, I was accustomed to working with private clouds and on-prem infrastructure, so nearly everything in my role here as a senior software engineer for the Grafana Mimir customer squad was new to me. I was new to Golang, Docker, Kubernetes, gRPC, public cloud services, etc. Kubernetes has been especially challenging. In my work on Grafana Mimir and Grafana Enterprise Metrics, I experience k8s in one of two extremes.
