Grafana Data Source Plugin
This is Anodot Datasource Plugin for Grafana, which together with the Anodot Panel Plugin allows users to use Anodot data for building Grafana Dashboards.
What is Grafana Data Source Plugin?
Grafana supports a wide range of data sources, including Prometheus, MySQL, and even Datadog. There’s a good chance you can already visualize metrics from the systems you have set up. In some cases, though, you already have an in-house metrics solution that you’d like to add to your Grafana dashboards. Grafana Data Source Plugins enables integrating such solutions with Grafana.
