About this session
Metrics are the most efficient format of observability telemetry. Still, or because of this, for most organizations the volume of data continuously grows. To help simplify complex metrics exploration, we introduced the Metrics Drilldown app for Grafana as a no-code way to quickly get insights into your data. In this lightning talk, Grafana Labs Senior Software Engineer Brendan O’Handley will demo the power of Metrics Drilldown, including its novel approach to metrics exploration, integrating OpenTelemetry resource attributes with Prometheus labels; the configurable OTel experience accessible through a single interface; consolidated filtering across both Prometheus labels and OTel resource attributes; intelligent query interpolation for complex metric joins; and automatic context-aware metric filtering and breakdown.
