Kick off the evening with a warm welcome and even warmer 🍕 pizzas!
* **🔥 6:30 PM** \- Running Grafana at Scale: A Better Together Story with Cast AI \(Phil Andrews\, Global Field CTO at Cast AI\)
Grafana provides comprehensive observability into cluster and application health, giving teams visibility into performance metrics, logs, and system behavior. Cast AI takes this a step further by using its AI-driven optimization to ensure Grafana itself runs efficiently in Kubernetes - right-sizing workloads, optimizing resource allocation, and scaling intelligently based on actual usage patterns.
* **🔥** **7:15 PM** \- The Lifecycle of Observability Systems: How Monitoring Gets Harder From Startups to Enterprises \(Aaron "Checo" Pacheco\, Founder/CEO at Ottermon AI\)
Checo has extensive observability experience at all scales and will share lessons on designing and growing monitoring systems.

The event is well-suited for DevOps and Site-Reliability engineers as well as anyone interested in AI, and we welcome people who are new to Grafana or observability. We look forward to seeing you all there!

Grafana Meetup: AI in Observability

Car Gurus

In this Campfire Community call, we'll be exploring Grafana's release pipelines - covering both our on-prem (public and private) artifact delivery and our Rolling Release Channels for building Grafana Cloud.

We'll walk through the fundamentals of how our pipelines work, including how ICs can patch branches and manage their own core Grafana releases, and where we're headed in the future.
Plus much more!

Join us for an AI-in-Observability meetup! This is a great opportunity to explore how AI is shaping modern observability and learn more about Grafana and the broader observability ecosystem. Connect with fellow practitioners, exchange ideas, and enjoy some delicious pizza while you’re at it.

We’ll dive into real-world use cases of AI in observability — more details on the sessions coming soon. Stay tuned and mark your calendars!

Your AI agents are running in production. But can you actually see what they're doing? Those tokens don't count themselves! Join us to dig into AI Observability — one of the fastest-growing challenges in the cloud-native space.

Here's what we're covering:
🔍 Monitoring agentic AI frameworks before issues become incidents
📊 Building powerful dashboards with AI-assisted workflows
🔓 Why OpenTelemetry and open-source standards matter more than ever

We'll also explore how Grafana and [Google Cloud](https://www.linkedin.com/company/google-cloud/) work alongside each other build observable, production-ready AI systems!

Grafana & Friends Chicago: AI & Grafana OSS

The Aspen Group

We're thrilled to invite you to the our next Grafana & Friends Lisboa Meetup! Many thanks to our friends from [Noesis](https://noesis.pt/) 🙌

We will have two talks, followed by a networking session. Come and have some 🍕 🍺 while exchanging ideas and engaging with the community.

This event will be held in English 🇬🇧

**📒 Agenda:**
18:30 – 🚪 Doors open and initial networking
19:00 – 🔈 **"The Grafana Features You're Probably Ignoring"** by **[Sarah Constant](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahconstant/)**, Staff Product Manager at [Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com)
*Audience:* All Grafana users, not just admins
Every Grafana release ships features that solve real problems, yet most users never find them. As a Product Manager at Grafana, I see the same requests come in for things that already exist. This talk is a rapid-fire tour of the features hiding in plain sight, why we built them, and how to start using them today.
19:30 – 🔈 **"From 1 User to 100 — Scaling Your Grafana Instance with OSS Tools"** by **[Sarah Constant](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahconstant/)**, Staff Product Manager at [Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com)
*Audience:* This is a great talk for anyone running Grafana for a team (current or aspiring).
Every Grafana instance starts the same way: one person, one admin account, dashboards everywhere. Then the team grows. Suddenly, you're fielding "who broke the dashboard?" and "why can't I see this folder?" This talk walks through the stages of Grafana org growth using only OSS features - from organising dashboards to Grafana-as-code - so scaling doesn't mean suffering.
20:00 – 🍕 Food, drinks, and more networking!

**📍 Location**
The Meetup will be held at the **[Noesis](https://noesis.pt/).**
**Address**: Centro Empresarial Torres de Lisboa\, Rua Tomás da Fonseca\, Torre E \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/svLhfa2C1ZPKfPsg6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/svLhfa2C1ZPKfPsg6)
