At a glance
Grafana here, in four lines.
What it is, what we install, what management covers and what it needs. The rest of this page is detail.
- What it is
- Grafana is the dashboard layer for everything measurable: metrics, logs, and alerts from dozens of data sources rendered into the panels ops teams live in.
- What we install
- The playbook deploys the current Grafana OSS behind HTTPS with authentication enforced, provisioning ready for data sources, SMTP wired to the MailChannels relay (when added) for alert emails, and the service supervised.
- What managed covers
- Platform and server updates, daily snapshots plus optional Dual Backups of dashboards and settings, monitoring, and the managed firewall in front of the UI.
- What it needs
- 2 GB RAM
Fits on SC-2GB, from $6.67/mo. Bigger sizes leave room for the apps you stack beside it.

Three ways to run Grafana.
Installing Grafana is the easy part. The real question is who keeps it running.

| Updates | You | You | Us, with a snapshot first |
| Monitoring and security | You | You | Us, 24/7: monitoring, firewall and IDS |
| Backups | You | Usually a paid add-on | Daily snapshots included, Dual Backups optional |
| Other apps on the server | Yours to wire up | One app per server | As many as fit, $0 each |
| When something breaks | You fix it | You fix it | Our engineers fix it, day or night |

The details
Grafana here, in plain words.
Straight answers to what people ask before they choose where to run it.
What does managed Grafana hosting include?
Grafana secured, updated, and backed up on a server we operate, with alert email that delivers, at flat pricing instead of per-user Grafana Cloud tiers. Your dashboards, your retention, your rules.
What can I point it at?
Anything with a data source plugin: a PostgreSQL or MySQL from this same catalog, Prometheus on your infrastructure, cloud services, business databases. Dashboards over your own SQL tables is an underrated superpower for SMBs.
Do alerts work?
Yes, Grafana Alerting is configured with SMTP through the authenticated MailChannels relay (add-on, from $8/mo), plus webhook, Slack, and Telegram contact points as you need them. Rules evaluate on your server on your schedule.
Why self-host instead of Grafana Cloud?
Retention and seats. Cloud tiers meter users, series, and history; self-hosted Grafana keeps every teammate and every month of data at the flat price of the server, next to the databases it reads over localhost.
FAQ
Grafana hosting, answered.
Still deciding? These are the questions we hear most.
How much RAM does Grafana need?
2 GB serves Grafana itself generously; the real RAM goes to the data stores beside it, which the sizing calculator counts.
Are my dashboards backed up?
Daily snapshots include provisioning and the internal database, so a rebuilt server comes back with every panel; Dual Backups adds two offsite copies.
Can it be private?
Yes: authentication is on by default, and WireGuard from the catalog can put the whole UI behind a VPN at no cost.
Which data sources can I connect?
Dozens of built-in ones (Prometheus, InfluxDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Loki among them) plus a plugin catalog. If it holds time series or answers SQL, Grafana probably charts it.
Is this the full open-source Grafana?
Yes, Grafana OSS, unrestricted: unlimited dashboards, users and alerting. Grafana Labs' cloud-only enterprise features are the only absentees.
Is this Grafana on a VPS or on shared hosting?
A VPS. Grafana runs on your own private virtual server with dedicated, non-oversold resources and its own IP. You get real isolation and performance, with the setup, TLS and hardening handled for you.
Can I run other apps on the same server?
Yes. Add any other catalog app to this server from your client area, one click each, no per-app charge. How much fits is a question of RAM, and resizing is minutes.
Do you migrate my existing Grafana?
Yes, migration help is free. Open a ticket with access to the current setup and we move it, verify it, and hand it back running. Nothing switches until you approve.
Can I upgrade or downgrade the plan later?
Anytime. Plans resize from the client area in minutes, annual billing keeps its flat 17% discount at every size, and there is never a fee to change tiers.
Grafana runs. You sleep.
