In line with Abilytics Inc.’s commitment to advancing cloud-native, data-led transformation for businesses of all sizes, we are excited to host the upcoming Grafana and Friends Kochi November Meetup at our office on November 23, 2024. This event is set to bring together observability professionals and enthusiasts for an inspiring morning focused on the latest advancements in Grafana and monitoring technologies.

In today’s increasingly data-centric world, the ability to understand and monitor digital infrastructure is crucial. Grafana has become a go-to tool for observability, offering powerful capabilities for creating insightful dashboards, managing time-series data, and monitoring application health. However, for many, navigating the expansive potential of Grafana can be daunting without community support and shared insights.

The Grafana and Friends Kochi Meetup Group was established to address this need—bringing together a community of like-minded professionals, developers, and enthusiasts who share an interest in observability and monitoring. The objective of the group is simple: to build a collaborative space where Grafana users can learn from one another, discuss best practices, and stay up to date on the latest tools and techniques.

What is Grafana and Friends Kochi?

The Grafana and Friends Kochi Meetup Group was created to address the need for a community that promotes collaboration and knowledge-sharing around these critical tools. By joining forces, we aim to support the growing ecosystem of Grafana users, developers, and DevOps professionals who are transforming how businesses monitor their applications and infrastructure.

This meetup group is more than a series of talks; it’s a hands-on experience. Regular sessions feature live demos, expert talks, and Q&A sessions that help participants sharpen their skills and discover the full potential of Grafana and its ecosystem. From exploring the nuances of time-series monitoring with Prometheus to understanding distributed tracing with Tempo, the group’s activities are designed to benefit beginners and experts alike.
