Introducing Charts v3.0: Slice, dice, filter and pivot the data in any way possible!

We are excited to announce Netdata Charts v3.0 and the NIDL framework. These are currently available at Netdata Cloud. At the next Netdata release, the agent dashboard will be replaced to also use the same charts.

One of the key obstacles in understanding an infrastructure and troubleshooting issues, is making sense of the data we see on charts. Most monitoring solutions assume that the users have a deep understanding of the underlying data, so during visualization they actually do nothing to help users comprehend the data easier or faster. The problem becomes even more apparent when the users troubleshooting infrastructure problems are the not the ones who developed the dashboards. In these cases all kinds of misunderstandings are possible, resulting in bad decisions and slower time to resolution.

To help users instantly understand and validate the data they see on charts, we developed the NIDL (Nodes, Instances, Dimensions, Labels) framework and we changed all the Netdata query engines, at both the agent and the cloud, to enrich the returned data with additional information. This information is then visualized on all charts.
