Case Study: Grafana Labs improves query performance and debugging with Jaeger from CNCF
A Cloud Native Computing Foundation Case Study
How Jaeger helped Grafana Labs improve query performance and root out tough bugs
Grafana Labs, the company behind the popular Grafana project, faced significant query performance issues and had difficulty troubleshooting tough bugs in their hosted metrics platform as they scaled. Without end-to-end visibility into requests, their engineers were forced to make guesses, which often proved to be ineffective and time-consuming.
The Cloud Native Computing Foundation's Jaeger distributed tracing provided the solution. By implementing Jaeger, Grafana Labs gained the ability to visualize request paths, which led to a 10x improvement in query performance and became an invaluable tool for diagnosing previously elusive bugs. The Cloud Native Computing Foundation's technology also dramatically increased the engineering team's confidence in operating their complex systems.
