Grafana Campfire 🔥 - Back to Basics - (Grafana Community Call - Feb 2026)

Grafana Campfire Community Calls are back!!

We are starting with Back to the Basics. Even though you heard it so many times, but some of you are either new to or not very experienced with terms such as monitoring, observability, metrics, tracing, profiling etc. The good news is that you're not alone, and we've got this!! 🙂 This will be a perfect learning opportunity to gain understanding during this live call and ask questions if anything is not clear.

We will cover topics such as:

• What is Observability (and its pillars)
• Key difference between Monitoring & Observability
• The Grafana Open Source project (tools, integrations, community contribution)
  and much more

𝙃𝙤𝙨𝙩𝙨 and 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙨 : Syed Usman Ahmad, Mat Ryer and Carl Bergquist.

Join us to get started and gain a better understanding of your application, platform, infrastructure, and devices within a single pane of glass, with complete observability.
