Amazon Managed Grafana introduces support for Grafana 12.4 workspaces

Amazon Managed Grafana has announced the inclusion of support for creating new workspaces using Grafana version 12.4. This latest release encompasses features introduced in open-source Grafana versions 11.0 through 12.4. Among these are Drilldown apps, dashboards powered by scenes, variables in transformations, enhanced visualizations, and new functionalities within the Amazon CloudWatch plugin.

The Queryless Drilldown apps allow users to explore Prometheus metrics, Loki logs, Tempo traces, and Pyroscope profiles through a simple point-and-click interface. The scenes-powered rendering engine significantly enhances dashboard performance. Furthermore, Amazon CloudWatch Logs now supports PPL and SQL queries, cross-account Metrics Insights, and log anomaly detection.

Additional features include a revamped table visualization that improves performance with CSS cell styling and interactive Actions buttons. The introduction of trendline transformations and navigation bookmarks further augments data exploration capabilities. Grafana 12.4 is available in all AWS regions where Amazon Managed Grafana is generally accessible.

Users can create a new Amazon Managed Grafana workspace via the AWS Console, SDK, or CLI. For a comprehensive list of new features, users are encouraged to consult the user documentation. Detailed instructions for creating workspaces with version 12.4 are provided, and more information about Amazon Managed Grafana’s features and pricing can be found on the product and pricing pages.
