Powered by that, SkyWalking has its Grafana > dashboard[2]. > > Meanwhile, as PromQL back by Prometheus, the PromQL can't provide all > features for SkyWalking as an APM. But Grafana as a visualization layer, it > covers more landscape. > > So, now, I am proposing a new sub project, skywalking-grafana-plugins. It > would include all new developed plugins on the top of Grafana component, > starting from service topology support by using Grafana node graph[3] plugin. > Furthermore, we could add more UI plugins such as endpoint dependencies, > traces. > > One last thing, Grafana is an AGPL licensed project. But these new plugins > are only built for users already using Grafana, rather than SkyWalking > requires users to adopt it. Booster UI is still our primary UI, all features > are only available on that. Grafana dashboard is only an optional extension > for users love Grafana. I believe this wouldn't be a License concern. > > If anyone has a question or concern about this proposal, please let me know. > > This new proposal is from 3 PMC members > - Sheng Wu > - Kai Wan > - Qiuxia > > We are welcome more to join. > > > [1] > https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/main/next/en/api/promql-service/ > [2] > https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/main/next/en/setup/backend/ui-grafana/ > [3] > https://github.com/grafana/grafana/tree/main/public/app/plugins/panel/nodeGraph > -- > Sheng Wu 吴晟 > > Apache SkyWalking > Apache Incubator > Apache ShardingSphere, ECharts, DolphinScheduler podlings > Zipkin > Twitter, wusheng1108
