💰 End-to-end observability that's efficient, scalable *and* cost effective. Grafana Cloud will have your teams saying, "Excellent." Here's how: https://lnkd.in/gGjGTEfa Hint: Adaptive Telemetry — Only pay for the telemetry you use while reducing unnecessary logs and metrics Efficient logging — Eliminate indexing overhead; cost efficient object storage Continuous profiling — Optimize performance; reduce infrastructure costs

3D printing 🤝 observability. In the season finale of the Big Tent podcast, Pavel Strobl (DevOps engineer at Prusa Research) shares more about the history of Prusa and observing 3D printing with Grafana. Richard Hartmann, Tom Wilkie, and Mat Ryer also chat through printing wind tunnels, plant pots, and... teeth? Learn more and listen here: https://bit.ly/42bXIok

🆕 Profiling AMA with Ryan Perry about #Grafana Pyroscope 🙋♂️ Learn how top customers like Shopify and Roblox use profiling alongside logs, metrics, and traces to supercharge observability. Profiling acts like a high-powered lens, letting you catch issues at the source code level, optimize infra spending ($$$), and uncover wins in real time. Register here: https://lnkd.in/gbFg_FZm What We’ll Cover 🧩 The Observability Puzzle: Go beyond logs and metrics to pinpoint root causes at the code level. 💰 Cost-Saving Stories: Learn how companies saved $1M+ by catching inefficient code in seconds. 👋 Hands-On Demo: Watch #Profiling in action and see how easy it is to start with Grafana Cloud.
