Grafana is an Open Source data visualization platform written in Go and NodeJS. It provides a vast choice of different graph types that can be easily combined into dashboards for displaying any kind of numerical or time-based data.
At AOE, we usually use Grafana in conjunction with Prometheus or AWS CloudWatch for visualizing both application and infrastructure metrics.
