# Configure Grafana AI Observability

Grafana AI Observability is configurable at every layer of the stack. You control how your SDK clients export and authenticate data, how the server stores and compacts traces, how online evaluation scores your AI application quality, and how the plugin connects to your data sources and enforces access.

  Tune generation export, authentication, batching, retry, and telemetry settings in your AI Observability SDK client.
- [Configure online evaluation](/docs/grafana-cloud/machine-learning/ai-observability/configure/evaluation/)  
  Set up LLM judges, evaluator types, rules, and providers for continuous quality scoring in AI Observability.
- [Configure the AI Observability plugin](/docs/grafana-cloud/machine-learning/ai-observability/configure/plugin/)  
  Configure plugin settings, RBAC roles, and data source connections in the Grafana AI Observability plugin.
