GrafanavsStrongDM

Grafana helps engineering and operations teams monitor infrastructure, applications, and business metrics using open standards and an extensible plugin ecosystem. It is available as open source, managed cloud, and enterprise deployments.

StrongDM addresses privileged infrastructure access. StrongDM is appealing for teams that want one governed route into databases, servers and cloud infrastructure. Centralized access records can reduce the ambiguity of shared credentials. It is another critical component in the access path. Buyers should assess connector resilience, licensing and how break-glass access works.
