Grafana Labs

Grafana Labs provides an open and composable monitoring and observability stack built around Grafana, an open source technology for dashboards and visualization. Grafana Labs helps companies manage their observability strategies with the LGTM Stack, which can be run fully managed with Grafana Cloud or self-managed with the Grafana Enterprise offerings, both featuring scalable metrics (Grafana Mimir), logs (Grafana Loki), and traces (Grafana Tempo) as well as extensive enterprise data source plugins, dashboard management, alerting, reporting, and security.

The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...

The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...

Marc Chipouras, VP of Emerging Products at Grafana Labs, has joined the APMdigest Vendor Forum.

Grafana Labs announced a set of new AI-focused capabilities: AI Observability in Grafana Cloud; a significant expansion of Grafana Assistant into more environments, as well as new agentic capabilities; the Grafana Cloud CLI (GCX), a new agentic interface for automated and agent-driven workflows; and o11y-bench, a new open source benchmark for evaluating AI agents running observability workflows.

 

Grafana Labs unveiled Grafana 13 and a wave of open source updates anchored by a next-generation Grafana Loki architecture and simpler paths to OpenTelemetry on Linux and Kubernetes.

Grafana Labs signed a strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to accelerate adoption of open observability on AWS. 

Grafana Labs announced the launch of Grafana Mimir 3.0, the latest evolution of its open-source, horizontally scalable metrics backend. 

Grafana Labs announced major advancements that make observability simpler, faster, and more accessible. 

Grafana Labs announced new updates that give organizations greater control over observability costs, more deployment flexibility, and enhanced compliance for mission-critical environments. 

Grafana Labs announced the public preview of Grafana Assistant, an AI-powered observability tool that allows users to interact with logs, metrics, and traces using natural language. 

Grafana Labs is collaborating with Microsoft to integrate Grafana dashboards directly into Microsoft's Azure Monitor. 

After nearly a decade of development, Grafana Labs announced the general availability of Grafana k6 1.0, a major milestone for the open source performance testing tool that was acquired by Grafana Labs in 2021.

Grafana Labs announced that Traces Drilldown is now generally available.

Grafana Labs announced the donation of Grafana Beyla, its open source eBPF-based, zero-code instrumentation tool, to the OpenTelemetry project.

Grafana Labs has obtained Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High Authorization through Palantir Technologies’ FedStart Program.

Open source dominance continues in observability, according to the Observability Survey from Grafana Labs.  A remarkable 75% of respondents are now using open source licensing for observability, with 70% reporting that their organizations use both Prometheus and OpenTelemetry in some capacity. Half of all organizations increased their investments in both technologies for the second year in a row ...
