Grafana

Grafana is an open-source web application for querying, visualizing, alerting on, and exploring metrics, logs, and traces from many different data sources through a single dashboarding interface. It does not store telemetry data itself; instead it connects to backends such as Prometheus, Mimir, Loki, and Tempo to render dashboards.
