Summary

Grafana Enterprise Logs (GEL) enhances the Grafana Enterprise Stack by introducing a centralized tenant administration feature through its admin API and plugin, building upon the log aggregation capabilities of Grafana Loki. The system supports multiple tenants, allowing for tailored data management through tenant-specific IDs and offering centralized control over data access and policies. Administrators can create tenants, set access policies, and generate tokens either via the admin API, which integrates with existing provisioning systems like Puppet or Chef, or through the Grafana Enterprise Logs administration plugin for a user-friendly interface. These features facilitate the secure and efficient management of log data, enabling organizations to restrict or control access according to their needs. The system also allows for flexible integration with Grafana for data visualization and analysis, supporting best practices in log management.
