As an alternative to Highcharts, you can also use Grafana—an open source tool, featuring analytics and visualization of metrics. Most commonly, Grafana is used for visualizing time series data based on the infrastructure and application analytics. However, it is also suitable for working with data from industrial sensors, home automation, weather, and process control devices.
The tool has a large community and offers a lot of plugins, enabling users to visualize data from almost any source in the form of charts, gauges, and even maps.
Out-of-box Grafana supports the following data sources:
- Graphite
- Prometheus
- Elasticsearch
- InfluxDB
- OpenTSDB
- MySQL
- AWS CloudWatch
