Sifting through the deluge of data from your distributed systems can be overwhelming – but it doesn’t have to be. Join us to see how Traces Drilldown in Grafana, powered by Tempo, can simplify complex troubleshooting, helping you quickly detect latency issues, identify error trends, and spot anomalies – all without having to learn yet another query language.

Metric analysis is hard. For engineers and for machines. I'll show you how to make it easy. In this talk, I'll share simple steps to boost your Grafana dashboard's UX and ML capabilities. Want to automate your Grafana analysis? Join my session to find out how.

Discover how Grafana Beyla, powered by eBPF and OpenTelemetry, can generate consistent observability signals for services across different languages and frameworks. Goutham will guide you through deploying Beyla, setting up dashboards, and improving monitoring even in low-traffic environments.

With dozens of both open and closed source tools available at hand, setting up observability for your applications may seem like a daunting task. In this talk, Aditya will share his experiences with observability, and show some ways to get you a head-start on your journey. With a collection of open-source tooling, we will take a look at how observability can be made easier for Kubernetes and beyond. This talk will conclude with a demo that shows up some of the latest advancements in open-source observability tools.

When deciding for a metrics tooling, one of the implicit decisions we take is about the temporality: are we capturing, exporting, and storing metrics that send only the difference between states (deltas), or are we picking a solution that works by accumulating data instead? In this talk, Tom Braack will show how to migrate from delta-style backends to cumulative ones, with a special focus on doing translations at the Collector side. Join us on this session and be equipped with knowledge about how to move from delta backends to cumulative ones, knowing what are the tradeoffs and gotchas.

If dashboard sprawl and intricate query languages have you feeling overwhelmed, this talk is for you. Bryan will introduce Grafana Cloud Asserts—a tool designed for SREs and developers. With auto-correlation of data, contextual insights, and ready-to-use alerts based on the SAAFE (Saturation, Amend, Anomaly, Failure, and Error) model, it’s set to revolutionize your observability experience.

Profiling helps developers understand which part of their application (ideally down to the function and line of code) is slowing it down. With that insight you are able to effectively optimize your application. In this talk I will show how using Grafana Pyroscope you can collect, aggregated and visualize Profiles. We will also look at how combining distributed tracing using Grafana Tempo, can help understanding resource consumption per request. While there is a focus on the Go ecosystem, most of the content of the talk is transferable to other languages.

Opening remarks for the Grafana & Friends community by the host.
