Grafana requires a database to store its configuration data, such as users, data sources, and dashboards. Some features might require more memory or CPUs. Grafana does not use a lot of resources and is very lightweight in use of memory and CPU. Installation of Grafana on other operating systems is possible, but it is neither recommended nor supported.

Refer to package.json for a complete list.

To run Grafana, you must have a supported operating system, hardware that meets or exceeds minimum requirements, a supported database, and a supported browser. This page lists the minimum hardware and software requirements to install Grafana. Create a free account to get started, which includes free forever access to 10k metrics, 50GB logs, 50GB traces, & more.
