1️⃣ Supercharging Grafana with Community Plugins by Juraj Michálek (Senior Solutions Architect at Grafana Labs), and Imma Valls (Staff Developer Advocate at Grafana Labs).
Grafana is powerful on its own, but its true potential lies in its vibrant community of plugin developers. In this talk, we'll delve into how community plugins extend Grafana's core functionality, enabling you to connect to a broader range of data sources and visualize your data in new and innovative ways. We'll introduce the Kafka Data Source plugin as a practical example, demonstrating how it enables you to directly query and visualize Kafka topic data in your dashboards, thereby bypassing the need for intermediate storage or external services.2️⃣ TBA by Dani Torramilans, Staff Engineer II at Warpstream
Talks will be in English 🇬🇧
