Grafana

Grafana is a leading open-source platform for monitoring, observability, and visualization. It allows users to query, visualize, alert on, and analyze data from a variety of sources, making it an essential tool for infrastructure and application monitoring.

With Grafana, you can:

• Visualize data: Build and customize dashboards to display metrics, logs, and traces in real time
• Monitor health and status: Check the health of your Grafana instance and connected data sources
• Manage alerts and annotations: Set up alert rules, manage notifications, and annotate dashboards with important events
• Organize content: Organize dashboards and data sources into folders for better access management

In Sim, the Grafana integration empowers your agents to interact directly with your Grafana instance via API, enabling actions such as:

• Checking the Grafana server, database, and data source health status
• Retrieving, listing, and managing dashboards, alert rules, annotations, data sources, and folders
• Automating the monitoring of your infrastructure by integrating Grafana data and alerts into your workflow automations

These capabilities enable Sim agents to monitor systems, proactively respond to alerts, and help ensure the reliability and visibility of your services — all as part of your automated workflows.
