“Grafana's culture is one of its top priorities and it shows. Grafana is full of the kindest, smartest, and most genuine people who are all working together towards a shared goal while getting to know each other as people too. Everyday is fun when I work with people who I genuinely like to solve complex, interesting business problems. ”
Our Leadership
In 2014 Raj Dutt, Anthony Woods, and Torkel ?degaard founded Grafana Labs to build a sustainable business around the Grafana open source project.
How Grafana Labs started
It all started with the open source project, Grafana, when Torkel ?degaard made his first commit in December 2013. He then went on a 14-day commit streak on GitHub and never looked back. Today, there are roughly 19 internal teams at Grafana Labs that focus on improving and innovating around Grafana, not to mention almost 2,000 contributors to the project. And Torkel has remained active alongside them.
Empowering organizations to make smart decisions with their data
We know that data has incredible power to solve complex problems, transform business, drive innovation, and ultimately make the world a better place. The unfortunate reality is that the data we need often lives all over the place in disparate systems across geos, platforms, servers, and more. It’s our mission as Grafanistas to unite data, no matter where it lives, and empower our users to analyze, take action, and make smart decisions.
