Grafana Labs announced a $24 million Series A funding round aimed at furthering its dedication to the open source community by enhancing its observability platform, which integrates logs, metrics, and traces into a unified user experience. Founded five years ago to accelerate Grafana's adoption and build a sustainable business, the company has since expanded its open source contributions with projects like Metrictank and Grafana Loki, while also supporting Graphite, Prometheus, and Cortex. This funding will enable Grafana Labs to continue investing in its community-focused approach and support their "Big Tent" Open Source Ecosystem Philosophy, while key hires like Douglas Hanna, Dave Kranowitz, and Ryan McKinley will aid in realizing these objectives. Despite not needing to raise funds, Grafana Labs is excited to use the investment to deepen its impact and advance technology through its global community of millions of users and developers.
