Grafana

Dashboards and alerting on top of Prometheus — how teams actually see production health.

Maturity level: L2 — Can Build

Six perspectives on Grafana

Roadmap

Learn immediately after Prometheus — they are a pair in production.

Architecture

Visualization and alerting layer on metrics, logs, and traces.

Company

Prometheus/Grafana stack appears frequently in SRE, MLOps, and platform roles.

Projects

Every deployed service gets a dashboard before it goes live.

Interview

Metrics selection, SLOs, and on-call practices.

Career

Required for anyone owning production reliability.

What & Why

What: Observability platform for metrics visualization, dashboards, and alerting.

Why: Prometheus collects metrics; Grafana is what on-call engineers stare at. Job posts list both together.

Build this

Grafana dashboard for an ML API: latency, error rate, GPU memory, and model version.

Production reality

  • ! Alert fatigue
  • ! Missing labels
  • ! Dashboard sprawl
  • ! Stale panels
  • ! False positives

Interview preparation

  • What metrics matter for ML inference?
  • How do you design actionable alerts?
  • SLO-based alerting
