Time: 2:00 PM UTC (4:00 PM CEST)

Dear Community Members :wave:

Grafana Labs Campfire :grafana: :fire: Community Calls are back.

We are starting with Back to the Basics. Even though you heard it so many times, but some of you are either new to or not very experienced with terms such as monitoring, observability, metrics, tracing, profiling etc. The good news is that you’re not alone, and we’ve got this!!

This will be a perfect learning opportunity to gain understanding during this live call and ask questions if anything is not clear.

What we’ll learn:

We will cover topics such as:

  • What is Observability (pillars)
  • Key difference between Monitoring & Observability
  • The Grafana Open Source project (tools, integrations, community contribution)
    and much more
