Business Charts
The Apache ECharts panel panel joins the Business Suite for Grafana and with that gets an elevated name. Now, the same amazing open source plugin is called the Business Charts panel.
Please welcome the new name for the same functionality!
The Business Charts Panel plugin is a visualization extension for Grafana powered by the Apache ECharts library.
The Business Charts Panel allows you to integrate charts and graphs created by the Apache ECharts library into your Grafana dashboard.
Apache ECharts is a powerful and versatile data visualization library providing a wide range of chart types including statistical capabilities. It is written in pure JavaScript and based on zrender, a lightweight graphic library for chart rendering.
The Business Charts plugin offers an easy way of adding intuitive, interactive, and highly customizable charts to your Grafana dashboard.
