TeleTracking, a healthcare operations platform provider, embarked on a journey to enhance its observability platform using Grafana Cloud, integrating tools like Prometheus and Grafana Loki to gain better visibility and control over their services. Initially, they built an in-house observability solution with open-source tools, but as operations scaled, they found the need to transition back to a managed solution with Grafana Cloud due to the complexities and costs involved. The adoption of Grafana Cloud has significantly decreased their workload and improved cost management, particularly with features like Adaptive Metrics that help reduce spend by optimizing metric verbosity. TeleTracking has streamlined monitoring configurations by standardizing key labels across services, simplifying alerting, and creating a "paved road" for AWS Lambda services to enhance developer efficiency. These efforts have not only saved costs but also allowed the company to reinvest in further capabilities such as Frontend Observability and Grafana Incident, ultimately supporting a more proactive and efficient developer environment.
