We recently announced a new open source project called Grafana Phlare. This highly available continuous profiling data source is built into Grafana core, allowing you to seamlessly monitor your profiling data. With continuous profiling, you can see which parts of your applications are consuming the most resources. You can then use that data to make any necessary tweaks to reduce consumption, which translates to lower costs.
