How the options compare
With each option covered on its own, here’s how the three line up side by side:
| Capability | OSS | Enterprise | Grafana Cloud |
|---|
| Dashboards, alerting, data sources | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Governance (RBAC, SAML, audit logging) | Basic permissions only | Yes | Yes |
| Premium data source plugins | Community only | Yes | Yes |
| Managed observability stack | No | No | Yes |
| Observability solutions and tools | No | No | Yes |
| Infrastructure management | You | You | Grafana Labs |
| Official support | Community | 24/7 | By plan |
Amazon Managed Grafana and Azure Managed Grafana cover dashboards and visualization with native AWS or Azure integration, but don’t include governance features or the observability stack.
