Grafana Campfire Community Calls are back. We are starting with *Back to the Basics.* Even though you heard it so many times, but some of you are either new to or not very experienced with terms such as monitoring, observability, metrics, tracing, profiling etc. The good news is that you're not alone, and we've got this!! This will be a perfect learning opportunity to gain understanding during this live call and ask questions if anything is not clear.

At today’s community call, we will hear from David Grant, one of the engineers who has brought a new component, the Block Builder, into Mimir. Using the Ingest Storage architecture in Mimir 3.0, the Block Builder takes over the block-building responsibility from the Ingester. This feature is experimental in Mimir today, but is rolling out to production inside of Grafana Labs now. This is a great time to introduce the component, discuss the motivation, and show where it fits in the larger architecture.
