Show us what you Grot

As part of our annual celebration of all things Grafana at GrafanaCON, we want to highlight the amazing Grafana dashboards our community creates.

The Golden Grot Awards recognize the top dashboard in two categories (personal and professional). One grand prize winner in each category will win a trip to GrafanaCON to be celebrated by their peers.

How it works

Judges vote Our panel of judges will vote on their top choices and narrow them down to a shortlist.

Winners announced One grand prize winner in each category will receive a trip to GrafanaCON.

Personal category

Did you create a Grafana dashboard to monitor your sourdough starter, visualize your own fitness metrics, or keep tabs on another aspect of your personal life? We’d love to see it. If your dashboard was created outside of work, submit in this category.

(a.k.a. Dashboard professionals)

From monitoring maritime dredging vessels to unlocking the power of recruitment data, we’ve seen teams build dashboards to help meet KPIs, speed development, and smash performance goals. If your dashboard was created in a professional setting, submit in this category.

What is a Grot?

Grot is a term of endearment for @grafanabot, the helpful little bot that keeps the Grafana GitHub repo in order. According to legend, Grot was born from the flames and tears of broken dashboards – but never fear, Grot’s always there to save the day with issue triage and pull requests.

A brief history of Grot

Our dino friend spent 65 million years in hibernation. Upon awakening, they found themselves having to re-learn everything they thought they knew about the world. Grot’s unique abilities to sift through the masses of issues and pull requests quickly proved invaluable to the Grafana community.
