Key capabilities
- Grafana Cloud telemetry
- Dashboards and alerting
- Open source software from the company
Estimate ingestion and retention for useful signals. Verify access and incident workflows with production-like data.

Dashboards do not resolve an outage by themselves. A trial should show the path from alert to metric, log and trace.
