Take an early look at Grafana Labs' Observability Survey

Grafana Labs conducted the Observability Survey 2022 to gather insights on observability practices and trends within their community, revealing that teams often use multiple data sources and technologies, with 67% of respondents using four or more data sources in Grafana and over half employing at least six observability technologies. Centralized observability is highlighted as beneficial, with 88% of respondents who use a single tool reporting time or cost savings, and many noting improvements in diagnostics and mean time to restore (MTTR). The survey also shows that 71% of organizations are using or considering service level objectives (SLOs) and service level indicators (SLIs), reflecting a growing interest in structured reliability metrics. The results reinforce Grafana Labs' "big tent" philosophy, which supports diverse technology integration, and respondents express excitement about learning new tools and achieving centralized observability, with popular technologies including Grafana, Prometheus, Grafana Loki, and Elastic/ELK. The survey findings were shared in the context of ObservabilityCON, where Grafana Labs announced new projects and provided insights into best practices in the observability space.
