Leveling up your Grafana Skills

Grafana is a popular open-source monitoring tool, but often, new users are unable to utilize its full potential to efficiently monitor or visualize data.

In this talk, we will demonstrate an example of how to monitor your Discourse forum using JSON API. Later, we see more advanced features to get better observability.

It will be an introduction to the Dashboards, and also an excellent opportunity to learn more about the advanced features, including troubleshooting & debugging.

join us to learn more about Grafana dashboards, community contributions and share your feedback and suggestions!
