It’s Grafana 7.0 release day, and Grafana creator Torkel Ödegaard will talk about everything you need to know about the new features and enhancements.

Do you ever feel like your systems lack unnecessary complexity and overengineering? This is the talk for you. Join me as I detail the creation of a Raspberry Pi-based desktop Kubernetes cluster in an attempt to overcomplicate the already complex world of stateless web application deployment. We’ll walk through building an observability platform using open source tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and Jaeger to keep a close watch on our tiny fragile microservices and then break them intentionally for our own amusement.

We have been utilizing Grafana at Whiting Oil and Gas for approximately three years. In that time, we have greatly impacted the way our field assets are managed through dashboards and alerting. Instead of servers and network data, Whiting is using the application to monitor oil and gas wells in remote locations. Historically, the energy industry has deployed very expensive tools to monitor assets and visualize data.

Grafana 7.0 is coming in May! In the next days and weeks before it launches during GrafanaCONline, we'll be posting sneak previews of new features.

It’s been nearly 2.5 years since Prometheus 2.0 released and 2 years since Prometheus graduated in the CNCF. You might say that clearly proves that Prometheus has become mainstream. However, that doesn’t mean Prometheus would be “done” now. The developer community is more active than ever. Let’s have a look at the highlights of the past year and at the things on the roadmap. The speaker is one of the Prometheus developers and would also be delighted to hear from you what you want to see next in Prometheus.

In the era of services architecture, reliability engineering, and container orchestration, the word “observability” is widely used but rarely clearly defined. What is “observability” really? Of the various observability concepts and tools, what are the distinctions and overlaps in various technologies?

Datask, founded in 2019, has been using Grafana to monitor real time production results for one of the largest fishery companies in the Netherlands. This company has developed its own automatic Fillet machine, which is unique for the fishery industry. These machines will be exported to several countries in the world. We are using industrial IOT technology to monitor these machines and present performance figures to various stakeholders.

Introducing Loki by Grafana, a new logging backend, optimized for users running Prometheus and Kubernetes. Loki is a great match with Grafana for searching, visualizing and exploring your logs natively. Loki is the latest 100% open source project from the team at Grafana Labs.
