Scenes powered Dashboards

Grafana Cloud Available in public preview Open source Enterprise Available in public preview Dashboards and visualizations
Release date: 2024-05-14

For the past few months we’ve been working on a major update of our Dashboards architecture and migrated it to the Scenes library. This migration provides us with more stable, dynamic, and flexible dashboards as well as setting the foundation for what we envision the future of Grafana dashboards will be. Here are two of the improvements that are being introduced as part of this work:


PDF export improvements

Grafana Cloud Available in public preview Enterprise Available in public preview Dashboards and visualizations
Release date: 2024-05-13

Introducing a major performance improvement for the PDF export feature.

Are you tired of waiting for your PDF to be generated or your report to be sent? We’re working on a major update of the dashboard-to-PDF feature to make it faster for large dashboards. The generation time will no longer be proportional to the number of panels in your dashboard. As an example, an SLO dashboard containing around 200 panels has gone from taking more than seven minutes to be generated to only eleven seconds.


Open Search Datasource Plugin Service Map

Grafana Cloud Generally Available Open source Enterprise Generally Available Traces
Release date: 2024-05-10

Version 2.15.0 of the OpenSearch plugin introduces support for visualizing Service Map for Open Search traces ingested with OpenSearch Data Prepper.

Service map in Grafana enables customers to view a map of their applications built using microservices architecture. With this map, customers can detect performance issues, or increase in error rates in any of their services.

In order to display the map, select Traces query type in the query editor and switch on the Service Map toggle.


SLO Team and Service performance view

Grafana Cloud Generally Available SLOs
Release date: 2024-05-09

The SLO Performance page provides a filterable view as to how your team and service SLOs are performing. This is critical for customers with a large amount of SLOs who would like to view a logical subset. To get started - tag your SLOs with the team_name and/or service_name labels.

Grafana Cloud Generally Available Open source Generally Available Alerting
Release date: 2024-05-06

OAuth2 is not implemented for the Grafana built-in Alertmanager.


Re-designed settings page for Alerting

Grafana Cloud Generally Available Open source Generally Available Alerting
Release date: 2024-05-06

The new settings page provides you with a holistic view of where Grafana-managed alert instances are forwarded.

  • Manage which Alertmanagers receive alert instances from Grafana-managed rules without navigating and editing data sources.
  • Manage version snapshots for the built-in Alertmanager, which allows administrators to roll back unintentional changes or mistakes in the Alertmanager configuration.
  • There is also a visual diff that compares the historical snapshot with the latest configuration to see which changes were made.
