How to Reduce Metrics Costs with Grafana Cloud Adaptive Metrics | Grafana Labs
Grafana Cloud Adaptive Metrics has helped users save up to 70% on observability costs by automatically aggregating unused and partially used metrics.
This video features a demo on Adaptive Metrics, where you’ll learn what we mean by “adaptive” — automating the process of recommending which metrics to drop while giving you the flexibility to determine any exemptions. This boils down to maintaining effective observability while reducing costs.
Learn how to:
- Identify and eliminate unnecessary high-cardinality labels
- Use Adaptive Metrics to automatically aggregate time series data based on usage patterns
- Continuously adapt your observability stack to minimize data overload and reduce costs
- Set exemptions to ensure essential data is always preserved
- Stay in control of your observability with automated recommendations and updates
