I need to know things about Grafana

What does LGTM stand for?

@grot do you know?

Absolutely, I can help with that! In the context of Grafana, LGTM stands for Loki, Grafana, Tempo, and Mimir. These are key components of Grafana's observability stack:

  • Loki: A log aggregation system designed to store and query logs.
  • Grafana: The visualization tool that allows you to create dashboards and visualize data from various sources.
  • Tempo: A distributed tracing backend that helps in tracing requests across microservices.
  • Mimir: A scalable time-series database for metrics.

This stack is designed to provide a comprehensive observability solution, allowing users to monitor logs, metrics, and traces in a unified manner. The acronym LGTM is also a playful nod to the common developer phrase "Looks Good To Me," often used when reviewing code changes.

If you have any more questions about Grafana or its components, feel free to ask!
