Grafana + databricks = True?

Erik
Valued Contributor II

We have some timeseries in databricks, and we are reading them into powerbi through sql compute endpoints. For timeseries powerbi is ... not optimal. Earlier I have used grafana with various backends, and quite like it, but I cant find any way to connect grafana with databricks. So I have two questions:

  1. Does anyone know if it is possible to use databricks/spark as a datasource for grafana in some way (I have ofcourse done the normal googlesearch)?
  2. Is there any other good way to query, visualize, and explore spark/databricks timeseries?

There is now an Open-Source Grafana Databricks backend plugin available.
