When a panel title needs more explanation, you can now display its description as a subtitle directly beneath it. This keeps context visible as you read the dashboard, helping you understand what a metric measures or how to interpret a chart. In Panel options , enter your Description and enable Use as subtitle .

Monitor your full stack from the Observability home page
The Observability home page is now the default landing page when you select Observability in the Grafana main menu. It brings together your services, databases, frontend applications, Pods, and nodes in one view so you can see what needs attention across your entire stack without switching between individual products.
Let Grafana propose SLOs for your service
From a service in the entity catalog, open the SLO tab. If the service has no SLOs yet, Grafana suggests availability and latency targets from recent request, error and latency metrics. You can edit the name, target and window, choose a folder, optionally add burn-rate alerts and create the SLO. You can also create one manually.
Track and create SLOs from your service entities
Every Service entity in the entity catalog carries an SLOs tab, so you can check whether a service is meeting its service level objectives (SLOs) while you investigate it, without switching to another app. The entity header carries an SLOs dropdown menu with a status dot, which gives you the same answer at a glance.
Import of Alertmanager configuration to Grafana Alerting
Moving alert rules from Mimir and Prometheus to Grafana previously meant manually rebuilding their notification setup in Grafana. Now you can import your existing Prometheus or Mimir Alertmanager configuration alongside your alert rules, bringing routing and notification settings with you instead of recreating them from scratch.
