Managed self-hosted Git service Gitea with the new integration for Grafana Cloud

Vitaly Zhuravlev discusses a new integration for Grafana Cloud, which now supports Gitea—an open-source platform for hosting version control using Git, along with collaborative features such as bug tracking, wikis, and code reviews. This integration allows users to leverage Grafana's observability capabilities to monitor metrics, logs, and traces across their software development projects hosted on Gitea. With the release of Gitea 1.16, new analytical metrics have been introduced, enabling insights into repository usage and performance issues. The Grafana dashboard offers key statistics, such as real-time user activity, repository metrics, and issue tracking, alongside performance indicators like CPU and memory usage. This tool aids in identifying new issues, understanding usage patterns, and assessing team activity over specified periods. Grafana Cloud offers a free tier for users to easily begin utilizing these features, and further resources for monitoring and alerting are available through Grafana's documentation and community channels.
