SkyWalking Grafana Plugins provide extensions for Apache SkyWalking to visualize telemetry data on Grafana.
Currently, SkyWalking supports PromQL to establish Grafana metrics dashboard.
The plugins are focusing on visualizing more telemetry data, e.g. Service Map Topology, as a new Grafana data source implementation.
