Visualize data in Promscale

You can visualize data in Promscale using tools such as Grafana and Jaeger.

• Grafana is an interactive visualization web application that allows you to monitor and analyze metrics, logs, and traces. It allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your data no matter where it is stored. You can connect Promscale to Grafana to visualize metrics and traces by configuring Promscale as:

  • Prometheus data source
  • Jaeger data source
  • PostgreSQL data source

• Jaeger is an open source distributed tracing system used for monitoring and troubleshooting microservices-based distributed systems. You can connect Promscale to jaeger-query component to visualize traces.

• APM experience is a set of connected Grafana dashboards included with Promscale that provide en experience similar to that of Application Performance Management (APM) tools. The dashboards use SQL queries on trace data to give you instant visibility into the performance of your services. You can set up the experience in your own Grafana instance and customize it to better meet your needs.
