Perses is a CNCF sandbox observability dashboard application for visualizing Prometheus metrics, Tempo traces, Loki logs, and Pyroscope profiles. It also provides an open dashboard specification, embeddable React components, SDKs, and a CLI for Dashboard-as-Code and GitOps workflows.
Use cases
- visualize prometheus metrics in dashboards
- view tempo traces and loki logs in one place
- manage dashboards as code in ci/cd pipelines
- embed observability panels into my own react app
- manage dashboards as kubernetes CRDs
- open-source grafana alternative for observability
When to choose
- you want a GitOps-friendly, dashboard-as-code observability tool
- you need Kubernetes-native dashboards managed via CRDs and an operator
- you want to embed dashboards or panels into your own UI
- you prefer an open dashboard specification and plugin extensibility
When to avoid
- you need data sources beyond Prometheus, Tempo, Loki, and Pyroscope
- you rely on Grafana's mature plugin ecosystem and long-standing features
- you only need simple ad-hoc charts without dashboard tooling
