It’s been said that data is only as useful as the conclusions you can draw from it. We’ve also often heard that a picture is worth a thousand words. So as you keep putting more and more data into your Zed lakes, naturally you’ll want to see your data as more than textual query responses.

Rather than reinvent the wheel and build yet another plotting tool, you now have all the best-of-breed visualizations in the popular Grafana platform at your disposal, thanks to the newly available Zed data source plugin. Now the data from your Zed lake can reach new audiences in dashboards made up of line charts, bar chats, pie charts, and more!

To see how easy it is to get started, check out the 3-minute video below. Then continue on to the README in the plugin repo for more details. If you have questions or feedback, come talk to us on the #grafana channel on the Brim community Slack.
