Problem
Organizations often struggle with fragmented telemetry across metrics, logs, traces, and profiles, leading to data silos, high operational costs, and slow incident resolution. Managing multiple tools and scaling observability without lock‑in further complicates reliable system monitoring.
Solution
Grafana Labs offers Grafana Cloud, a fully managed, open‑source‑based observability platform that unifies all telemetry signals into a single, searchable view. Built on OpenTelemetry and Prometheus standards, the platform ingests metrics, logs, traces, profiles, and business data without requiring data migration. Adaptive Telemetry uses AI and machine‑learning to automatically sample, aggregate, or drop low‑value data, cutting observability spend by up to 80 % while preserving critical insights. The integrated Grafana Assistant provides a chat‑based AI layer that helps users build dashboards, write queries, and perform root‑cause analysis without deep expertise, accelerating issue detection and remediation. The solution scales from small teams to global enterprises, offering seamless integrations with existing stacks and compliance‑ready deployments.
Target Audience
Primary customers are SRE, DevOps, and platform engineering teams in mid‑size to large enterprises that need a single, cost‑effective observability stack for cloud‑native applications.
