# Grafana metrics

The Kloudfuse platform has a fully-compliant PromQL interface for exploring its metrics. This enables you to use standard open-source tools, like Grafana. Kloudfuse stack ships with a built-in Grafana server that you can access by clicking the **Grafana** tab on the top bar.

Use the Grafana service to create custom dashboards and perform _ad-hoc_ metric exploration. You can also import existing Grafana dashboards into the Kloudfuse Grafana instance.

Alternatively, you can configure an external Grafana application by adding the kloudfuse stack as a Prometheus data source. See [Grafana documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/datasources/add-a-data-source/) for details.
