Problem
The provided Grafana dashboards:
- Assume
container_name=~".*api" which doesn't match all deployments
- Don't show logs unless Loki is carefully configured
- May duplicate metrics in horizontally scaled setups
Proposal
- Update dashboards to avoid hardcoded filters
- Document how to:
- Set up traceable logs in Loki
- Avoid metric duplication from multi-replica services
- Customize dashboards for non-standard service names
Motivation
Improve out-of-the-box observability. Many users don’t have time to debug Grafana quirks during adoption.
