These features are included in the Grafana open source edition.
### Grafana v8.0 alerts
The new alerts in Grafana 8.0 are an opt-in feature that centralizes alerting information for Grafana managed alerts and alerts from Prometheus-compatible data sources in one UI and API. You can create and edit alerting rules for Grafana managed alerts, Cortex alerts, and Loki alerts as well as see alerting information from prometheus-compatible data sources in a single, searchable view. For more information, on how to create and edit alerts and notifications, refer to [Overview of Grafana 8.0 alerts]({{< relref "../alerting/unified-alerting/_index.md" >}}).
As part of the new alert changes, we have introduced a new data source, Alertmanager, which includes built-in support for Prometheus Alertmanager. It is presently in alpha and it not accessible unless alpha plugins are enabled in Grafana settings. For more information, refer to [Alertmanager data source]({{< relref "../datasources/alertmanager.md" >}}).
> **Note:** Out of the box, Grafana still supports old Grafana alerts. They are legacy alerts at this time, and will deprecated in a future release.
To learn more about the differences between new alerts and the legacy alerts, refer to [Differences between Grafana 8.0 alerts and legacy alerts]({{< relref "../alerting/difference-old-new.md" >}}).
### Library panels
Library panels allow users to build panels that can be used in multiple dashboards. Any updates made to that shared panel will then automatically be applied to all the dashboards that have that panel.
