How the new time series panel brings major performance improvements and new visualization features to Grafana 7.4Removed

Grafana 7.4 introduces the Time Series panel, an advanced graph visualization tool that builds on the panel architecture from Grafana 7.0, offering significant performance improvements and new visualization features. The update transitions from the jQuery Flot library to the high-performance uPlot library, allowing seamless migration of existing functionalities from the Graph panel. This beta release enhances user experience by shifting options to field options and overrides, and it introduces features like smooth line interpolation, auto point display based on data density, gradient fill modes, and support for multiple y-axes. These changes, which address popular community requests, are designed to offer users greater customization and improved data visualization. The Time Series panel is part of a broader effort to expand Grafana's visualization capabilities, with plans to further develop these enhancements in Grafana 8.0. Users are encouraged to explore these features through Grafana Cloud, which now offers new free and upgraded paid plans.
