Grafana is a general purpose dashboard and graph composer. It's focused on providing rich ways to visualize time series metrics, mainly though graphs but supports other ways to visualize data through a pluggable panel architecture. It currently has rich support for for Graphite, InfluxDB and OpenTSDB. But supports other data sources via plugins.

It is the first debugging platform built for enterprise-grade software. It improves system availability, software quality and team efficiency by bringing automation to incident detection, response and resolution. The debugging platform automatically snapshots faulting applications and their surrounding environments then, analyzes and archives them in a centralized object store so bugs don't get missed and get fixed faster.

Create, edit, save & search dashboards;Change column spans and row heights;Drag and drop panels to rearrange;Use InfluxDB or Elasticsearch as dashboard storage;Import & export dashboard (json file);Import dashboard from Graphite;Templating
Automated capture, notification, and analysis of software errors for SREs/Ops and Developers; Automated analysis crawls application state + code to give you a head start on root cause analysis; Captures a rich data set which includes stacktrace across all threads, reachable variables, system information and much more; Includes support for C/C++; Powerful customizable graphs, visualizations, queries; Custom grouping and classification; Workflow Integration into Slack, HipChat, GitHub, JIRA, etc; Completely extensible crash format and debugger; Orders of magnitudes faster than today's debuggers
