Grafana (and especially Loki) is hot garbage compared to what you get out of the box in GCP. I'm in a Grafana organization today and the sheer amount of developer and devops time it wastes is mind boggling.

You moved something from a single datastore to three different database technologies? I don't know your domain, but that sure doesn't sound like a complexity reduction.

what's bad about graphana? it's simply used for some alerts and monitoring, i've used it for really long time and it has never failed me not even once.

it's much simpler to query postgres or mongo compared to duplicating data dozens of times on datastore.
