Design Philosophy

Contrary to Grafana's big and all, DataV's design goal is small and beautiful.We support 90% of common usage scenarios.In these scenarios, DataV can ensure that it is simple enough and easy to use. Plug-in development will also be very simple.

  1. The special needs of users are left to themselves to do, don't try to cover all scenarios

e.g Simplify datasources, only provide some most frequently-used metrics/logs/traces store, others willl be supported via standard http ways

  1. Users from grafana MUST NOT pay too much on migration

Query api,import json format, panel plugins, variables these should be compatible with grafana

  1. Keep our codes and core features clean and simple

Code maintaing and re-developing shouldn't be a nightmare.

  1. The needs of the bosses must be taken into account

Our bosses usually have different sights, so datav will take their needs too, e.g big screen dashboard, data report, data association etc
