In this tutorial, we will cover how to load demo data from .CSVfiles into QuestDB and use this as a data source for a Grafana dashboard. The dashboard will have line charts as data visualizations that make use of aggregate SQL functions and Grafana global variables for sampling data based on dashboard settings.

What Is Grafana?

Grafana is an open-source visualization tool. It consists of a server that connects to one or more data-sources to retrieve data, which is then visualized by the user in a browser.
