CockroachDB integration for Grafana Cloud
CockroachDB is a cloud-native SQL database for building global, scalable cloud services that survive disasters. The CockroachDB integration enables the Grafana Agent to send metrics to Grafana Cloud. The integration also creates a useful default dashboard for visualization of CockroachDB metrics within Grafana Cloud.
