Grafana Labs, the company behind some of the world’s most ubiquitous open and composable operational dashboards, announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft to develop a Microsoft Azure managed service that lets customers run Grafana natively within their Azure cloud platform. This new service makes it simple for Azure customers to deploy secure and scalable Grafana instances, and connect to open-source, cloud, and third-party data sources for visualization and analysis. Customers interested in proprietary plugins will be able to easily upgrade to Grafana Enterprise.

“At Grafana Labs, we don’t believe in a ‘one size fits all’ approach to observability deployment – we want our customers to be able to deploy Grafana where it makes the most sense for their infrastructure, whether that’s on a local server or in a public cloud platform like Microsoft Azure,” said Raj Dutt, CEO and co-founder at Grafana Labs. “Through our strategic partnership with Microsoft to bring Grafana directly to the Azure cloud platform, we’re giving millions of users instant access to the gold standard for monitoring and visualizing their cloud data, and the ability to upgrade at any point to integrate with even more data sources.”
Customers who choose the Microsoft Azure managed service can easily upgrade to the full Grafana Enterprise experience to maximize their existing IT infrastructure investments, with data source plugins to the most popular services in the market today, including ServiceNow, Splunk, MongoDB, New Relic, Datadog, and more. Customers also have access to customized training sessions, professional services, and enterprise-level customer support.
“Grafana Labs develops some of the most adopted monitoring and visualization tools in the market today, and we’re looking forward to combining the power of Grafana with the scale of Microsoft Azure,” said Scott Hunter, VP Director of Program Management at Microsoft. “This partnership provides a new option to run Grafana as a managed service for Azure and Grafana Labs customers and helps support the entire open-source community.”
