Why Teams Go Open Source

Self-host or cloud

Deploy via Docker/Kubernetes or use our managed service—switch anytime without migration pain.

Extensible widgets

Use built-in charts or build custom React/HTML blocks with your own styling and logic.

Query freedom

Write SQL, GraphQL, PromQL, or scripts; version queries in Git and reuse across dashboards.

Access control

Integrate SSO/SCIM, manage row-level permissions, and keep audit trails for compliance.

Plugin marketplace

Install community-made connectors, themes, and alerting modules—or publish your own.

API-first

Every dashboard, dataset, and alert is accessible via REST/GraphQL for CI/CD workflows.

Open-Source Dashboard Tips

1. Use config-as-code

Store dashboard JSON in Git so you can roll back changes and review diffs.

2. Isolate secrets

Store API keys via environment variables or secret managers instead of embedding in queries.

3. Cache heavy queries

Leverage Redis or built-in caching layers for expensive warehouse queries.

4. Document data sources

Link to data catalogs or include inline notes so teammates trust each visualization.

5. Monitor the monitor

Set uptime checks and alerts for your dashboard service to avoid silent failures.

6. Engage the community

Contribute bug fixes and plugins; you’ll gain faster support and influence the roadmap.
