We'll have our next Meetup in January!

Talk 1)
**Cloud-native Observability with Prometheus and beyond** *Richard Hartmann, Director of Community @ Grafana Labs*

Observability is a buzzword, but its promise is something you need: The ability for both humans and machines to understand the state of the systems you run.

We will walk through how humans deal with data, how observability is actually defined, the most important aspects of SRE and devops, how to think about your services and what to alert on.

In the second section, we will look at Prometheus and why it's the cloud native standard for metric-based observability.

In the third section, we will look at the Open Source tools Grafana Labs is offering in the observability space: Loki for logs, Grafana for graphs (and more), Mimir for metrics, and Tempo for traces.

After this session, you will have a solid understanding of what observability is and how to apply it to your own infrastructure.a

Talk 2)
**Paving the way to Real User Monitoring (RUM) with Grafana Faro**
*Kostas Pelelis, Software Engineer and Technical Lead at Grafana Faro*

**Abstract:** The mission of [Faro](https://grafana.com/oss/faro/) is to help users monitor web application performance, discover frontend errors, and track user behavior to ease failure resolution. The collected frontend observability data can then be correlated with backend and infrastructure data in the Grafana Labs LGTM stack (Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Tempo for traces, Mimir for metrics) for a seamless, full-stack, open source observability solution.

**Bio:** Kostas is a software engineer at Grafana. He want to perfect application observability for his home server that powers most of the house. On his free time, you might find him baking pizzas or playing Footvolley.

Talk 3)

**Grafana at an Automotive Manufacturer**
*Danijel Tasov, Software Consultant, ConSol Software GmbH*

**Abstract:** Danijel will show us a performance cockpit for hundreds of applications built with Grafana. The cockpit organizes and visualizes project-specific data provided by different operations teams.

**Bio:** Danijel is a Software Consultant at ConSol using Grafana since
version 4 and also has experience in Naemon, Prometheus, Nagios,
Kubernetes, VictoriaMetrics and InfluxDB.
