Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • Grafana

    The open and composable observability and data visualization platform. Visualize metrics, logs, and traces from multiple sources like Prometheus, Loki, Elasticsearch, InfluxDB, Postgres and many more.

  • the "budget" you mentioned can also encompass the costs to run, or configure, the tool which may be implied in what you meant by "budget" but in my experience is worth highlighting even if one isn't subject to Datadog-billing-nonsense

    plus there's also the differing licensing terms <https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/v10.2.3/LICENSE>, often differing even within projects themselves <https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/v7.5.16/LICENSE>
