About the presentation:
Grafana is undergoing a significant architectural evolution—transforming itself into an observability application platform. This talk will dive into how we’re leveraging Kubernetes API machinery to structure, version, and expose our internal APIs, and how those APIs are now aggregated and surfaced through a centralized API server. We'll walk through implementation details, show concrete examples, and explore the trade-offs that come with this approach.
