Grafana Labs
CEO: Raj Dutt
Grafana Labs is the commercial company built around Grafana, the open source metrics and analytics dashboard whose creator, Torkel Ödegaard, is a cofounder. In May, it announced the general availability of Grafana 7.0 with upgrades --including a new Amazon CloudWatch Logs plugin -- to simplify the development of custom plugins and increase the power and speed of visualization. Its commercial products include Grafana Enterprise for large organizations and Grafana Cloud, a hosted Grafana-based stack that includes Prometheus and Graphite for metrics and Loki for logs. Last fall, Grafana Labs announced $24 million in series A funding led by Lightspeed Venture Partners to accelerate the creation of an open and composable observability platform for metrics, logs and traces that’s centered around Grafana. Grafana Lab’s 1,000-plus customers include Bloomberg, eBay, PayPal and Sony.
