7. (Optional) Add a Description to explain its purpose or audience.
8. (Optional) Select a Folder to organize it and apply RBAC permissions.

Panel types

Kloudfuse supports the following panel types for visualizing your data:

• Timeseries — Visualize metrics over time with line, point, or bar graphs.
• Top List — Rank and display the highest or lowest metric values.
• Pie Chart — Display metric proportions across categories.
• Host Map — View host-level metrics in a color-coded grid.
• Log Events — Display filtered log entries in real time.
• Text — Add static or markdown-formatted content.
• Row — Group related panels horizontally.

Add a Panel to a Dashboard

Panels are the building blocks of a Kloudfuse dashboard. Each panel represents a visualization of your observability data—whether it’s time-series metrics, aggregated lists, log events, or static content.

Use panels to create focused, actionable views of infrastructure or application performance.

Add a New Panel

1. Go to the Dashboards tab.
2. Open the dashboard where you want to add the panel.
3. Click Add Panel in the top action bar.
4. In the Add Panel screen:
   • Select a panel type that best fits your data.
   • Choose a Data Source (metrics, logs, or traces).
   • Configure visualization and query settings for that panel type.
5. Click Save to add the panel to your dashboard layout.
