This journey is for people who have decided to use Grafana Cloud

Estimated time: 1 min

## Welcome to Grafana Cloud

By the end of this journey, your data will be flowing into Grafana Cloud, or connected where it already lives, and you’ll be familiar with dashboards and the other features you’ll use most.

This journey is for people who have already chosen to work with Grafana Cloud, or are about to sign up.

> Note
> 
> If you’re still deciding, start with [Introduction to Grafana Cloud](/docs/learning-hub/is-grafana-cloud-right-for-me/) instead. If you want to compare Grafana options first, start with [Which Grafana is right for you?](/docs/learning-hub/which-grafana/).

## What you’ll learn

Here’s what this journey covers:

- **Choose a starting point:** based on your situation
- **Perform one first action:** in your own account, with a guide that walks you through it
- **Look around Grafana:** dashboards, visualizations, Drilldown, Explore, and alerting on a public demo, while your data arrives or before you have access
- **Know what else exists:** two or three other things Grafana Cloud can do after that first action

## Journey duration

~10-15 minutes of slides. Each hands-on path you complete adds about 5 minutes.
