Explore Metrics

Explore Metrics is a query-less experience for browsing Prometheus-compatible metrics. Search for or filter to find a metric. Quickly find related metrics - all in just a few clicks. You do not need to learn PromQL! With Explore Metrics, you can:

  • easily slice and dice metrics based on their labels, so you can see anomalies right away
  • See the right visualization for your metric based on its type (e.g. gauge vs. counter) without building it yourself
  • surface other metrics relevant to the current metric
  • “explore in a drawer” - expand a drawer over a dashboard with more content, so you don’t lose your place
  • view a history of user steps when navigating through metrics and their filters
  • easily pivot to other related telemetry - IE, logs or traces

… all without writing any queries!
