Grafana Com Rate Limits

Reconciled rate limits and ingestion quotas for Grafana Cloud and self-managed Grafana. Grafana Cloud applies per-tenant ingestion rate limits and burst caps on metrics, logs, traces, and profiles. Self-managed Grafana exposes per-data-source rate limiting and per-API quotas configurable via grafana.ini.

Grafana Com Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Grafana on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 7 rate-limit definitions, measuring active series, GB per month, check executions per month, requests per second, and requests per minute.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serverOverloaded.
