GrafanaCON 2024, scheduled for April 9-10 in Amsterdam, marks the first in-person gathering of the Grafana open-source community in five years, offering a platform for technical talks, live demos, and community interaction. Although the event is sold out, virtual participation is available through a keynote recap webinar. Attendees will engage with contributors and maintainers of key projects like Grafana, Loki, and Prometheus, learning how to navigate and contribute to open-source initiatives. The conference also invites submissions for presentations that showcase real-world applications and creative uses of Grafana, with a call for papers open until February 20. Additionally, the Golden Grot Awards will recognize outstanding Grafana dashboards, with top entries eligible for a trip to Amsterdam to be honored at the event. This gathering not only promises technical insights and innovations but also emphasizes the value of community connections and shared learning experiences.
