Grafana in Action
Real outcomes from Apto’s Grafana and LGTM stack engagements.
Observability Platform Build — Fintech
FINANCIAL SERVICES / CAPITAL MARKETS
A UK-regulated capital markets platform needed unified observability across multi-region EKS. Apto designed a combined approach leveraging Splunk for SIEM alongside cloud-native monitoring, with Grafana providing the visualisation layer for infrastructure and application metrics across five Kubernetes clusters.
Open-Source Migration — Proprietary to LGTM
TECHNOLOGY / SAAS
An organisation migrating from proprietary monitoring tools to the Grafana LGTM stack. Apto managed the full migration — deploying Loki, Tempo and Mimir on Kubernetes, building comprehensive dashboards, and implementing unified alerting — achieving significant cost savings while gaining richer observability across logs, metrics and traces.
