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.

Use the walkthrough in Grafana Cloud to install the CockroachDB Integration, like in our Quickstart.
