A Grafana data source plugin for IBM DB2
BETA

The BETA version currently returns all values as text. You can use Grafana Transformations to convert text fields to the proper data type (date, number, etc).
The DB2 data source uses ODBC
This plugin has a dependency on ODBC. Windows/Linux/MacOS all support ODBC. Some dependencies may need to be installed.
