> Hi
>
> I am here to propose a new sub project for SkyWalking to expand its 
> visualization ecosystem.
> SkyWalking OAP had released 9.4.0, which includes one key feature is that, 
> the support for PromQL[1]. 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.
