Story
Inside Alteryx, production support used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. SREs and developers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Alteryx uses Loki from Grafana Labs as the working layer for application health. Grafana Labs builds open observability software for dashboards, logs, traces, and metrics, with Grafana Cloud as the hosted option. The practical change is simple: production support has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Alteryx gets from Grafana Labs is a durable place to run production support and a way for SREs and developers to see the same application health at the same time.
