Amazon Managed Grafana

#69 · Level 2 · Scaling and resilience · Monitoring and operations

Amazon Managed Grafana is the AWS-run version of the open source Grafana dashboard tool. Grafana does not store data itself; instead it pulls information from various data sources and builds graphs and dashboards. Its data sources can be CloudWatch, Managed Service for Prometheus, X-Ray and many more. On AWS you get a workspace, and AWS handles setting up servers, updates and scaling. Users sign in with IAM Identity Center or SAML-based login.
