Grafana Labs has announced the open-sourcing of Grafana OnCall, an on-call management tool initially launched as a cloud-only solution for Grafana Cloud users. Grafana OnCall, originating from the acquisition of Amixr Inc., was designed to simplify workflows and enhance incident response for DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) teams. The open-source version, Grafana OnCall OSS, allows users to self-manage deployments, addressing concerns like security and limited connectivity. By integrating into Grafana’s observability stack, the tool facilitates efficient collaboration and faster incident resolutions, remaining connected through Grafana Cloud’s 24/7 monitoring. The open-source initiative invites community participation in development, offering flexibility in local environments while maintaining access to Grafana Cloud’s features. This move aligns with Grafana’s broader strategy of making its tools accessible and resilient, empowering engineers with reliable notification systems.
