Releasesby GlyphRedesigned Grafana Cloud homepage
We’ve redesigned the Grafana Cloud homepage around what you need when you log in. It brings your recent work, firing alerts and incidents, your on-call shifts, and the state of your observability stack onto one page. The homepage adapts to your stack. On a new stack, it guides you through setting up your first solutions.
