Grafana & Friends Munich

Welcome to our first Meetup of the year, hosted by the lovely folks of Consol.

Talk 1)
Insights into photovoltaics with Grafana.
Wolfgang Klimt, Consol

With two dashboards I show what a PV system can achieve in our area and where the limits are. How important are orientation and shading and how big should a battery storage system be? And how much data can you actually pack onto a single dashboard? :-)

Talk 2)
Running Loki in AWS: Learnings and Pitfalls
Victor Wolf, QAware
We have jointly set up Loki in an AWS EKS cluster in our project and have been running it for a few months now. In our largest cluster, >100 million log lines with >60GB data volume are generated on weekdays. Of course, we also fell into a few typical (and perhaps not so typical) traps that we talk about.

Talk 3)
