Get ready for another exciting event with **Grafana & Friends: Happy Hours**! Grafana Labs is all set to host its next happy hour in Pune in collaboration with **Techspian Services Pvt. Ltd**.

Here's the detailed agenda of the meetup :

* **10:30 am - 10:45 am** \- Intro and Welcome
* **10:45 am- 11:20 am:**

**Session 1: 'Logs are the New Metrics'** by **[Sandeep Sukhani](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandeepsukhani/)** *(Senior Software Engineer at [Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com/))*
**About Session:** Grafana Loki is a Prometheus-inspired, horizontally scalable, multi-tenant log aggregation system. It lets you centrally aggregate logs cost-effectively by not indexing all the contents of the logs. With Loki, you can tap into the Prometheus ecosystem using just the logs. With its PromQL-like query language, you can convert logs to metrics at query time, build dashboards, alert on events, or remote write metrics built from logs to Prometheus-compatible metric stores. Having been introduced just five years back, with more than 21K GitHub stars, it is the fastest-growing open-source log aggregation system. In this talk, I will show how Loki takes a different approach than traditional log aggregation systems and various ways you can build metrics out of your logs.
* **11:30 am - 12:05 pm:**

**Session 2: ' Deep Dive in EKS Control Plane Observability'** by **[Pratik Argade](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pratik-argade-2bb841168/)** (*DevOps Engineer* *at [VOIS](https://www.vodafone.com/careers/professional-career-areas/shared-services))*
**About Session:** A deep dive into why and how to observe the EKS control plane, exploring tools like Prometheus, Loki, and AWS CloudWatch that help achieve effective observability.
* **12:15 pm - 12:30 pm**: Snacks and Networking

We can’t wait to host you. 🚀 It will be a lot of learning and fun, we promise!
Note: This is an in-person event; no recordings will be available post-event.

*We look forward to seeing you there! For any questions or to express interest in future speaking opportunities, please contact the organizers. More details on speakers and the complete agenda will be shared soon!*

Grafana & Friends Hyderabad X MongoDB meetup

91 SpringBoard Kondapur

Nous sommes ravis de vous inviter au prochain meetup Grafana, qui se déroulera dans les locaux d'Apside – un immense merci à eux pour leur accueil chaleureux !
Rejoignez-nous pour des discussions techniques, des pizzas et des bières bien fraîches !

***

**❗️Important :** Pour accéder aux locaux d'Apside, la sécurité a besoin de votre **nom complet** lors de l’inscription. Merci de votre attention**❗️**

Les portes ouvrent à 18h30, et le programme débutera à 19:00 !
**Au programme :**

### **1\. Harmonie Mutuelle x Grafana \- A Single Pane Of Glass \(Robin Marechal\, Apside\)**

Une des forces principales de Grafana est sa capacité à centraliser l’information avec son approche “Single Pane Of Glass.” Grâce à sa modularité et sa flexibilité, Grafana s’interface avec de nombreux systèmes, y compris d’autres outils de supervision, compensant ainsi l’absence d’interconnexion entre certains outils puissants mais souvent peu compatibles.
Découvrez comment Harmonie Mutuelle a décidé d’adopter l’Open Source en intégrant Grafana pour simplifier et améliorer sa résolution d'incidents.

**Bio de Robin :** Tech Lead chez Apside avec plusieurs spécialités : développement fullstack, data, et observabilité. Depuis que j’ai découvert Grafana en 2018, j'accompagne les entreprises dans leur transformation vers une observabilité avancée.

### **2\. LLM Observability \(Kamel Djoudi\, Grafana\)**

Les modèles de langage (LLMs) révolutionnent l'IA, mais leur complexité rend leur observabilité essentielle pour offrir une expérience optimale aux utilisateurs. Cette session abordera l'importance de l’observabilité dans les applications basées sur des LLMs, de la collecte de données à l’analyse des latences et erreurs. Nous verrons comment des outils comme OpenTelemetry et Grafana permettent de capturer des informations précises sur les requêtes, le temps de réponse, et même les coûts liés aux modèles pour une meilleure compréhension et gestion des performances des LLMs.

**Bio de Kamel :** Senior Solutions Engineer chez Grafana Labs, avec plus de 10 ans d'expérience dans les architectures réseau d'entreprise, les systèmes distribués et les plateformes de données. Depuis deux ans, j’accompagne les entreprises dans la définition et la mise en œuvre de leur stratégie d'observabilité.

À très bientôt !
