# About Grafana
# Installation
Grafana is a leading open source application for visualizing large-scale measurement data.
Grafana is easily installed via a Debian/Ubuntu package (.deb), via
Redhat/Centos package (.rpm) or manually via a tarball that contains all
required files and binaries. If you can't find a package or binary for
your platform, you might be able to build one yourself. Read the [build
from source](../project/building_from_source) instructions for more
information.
It provides a powerful and elegant way to create, share, and explore data and dashboards from your disparate metric databases, either with your team or the world.
## Platforms
- [Installing on Debian / Ubuntu](installation/debian.md)
- [Installing on RPM-based Linux (CentOS, Fedora, OpenSuse, RedHat)](installation/rpm.md)
- [Installing on Mac OS X](installation/mac.md)
- [Installing on Windows](installation/windows.md)
- [Installing on Docker](installation/docker.md)
- [Installing using Provisioning (Chef, Puppet, Salt, Ansible, etc)](installation/provisioning.md)
- [Nightly Builds](http://grafana.org/download/builds.html)
Grafana is most commonly used for Internet infrastructure and application analytics, but many use it in other domains including industrial sensors, home automation, weather, and process control.
## Configuration
Grafana features pluggable panels and data sources allowing easy extensibility. There is currently rich support for [Graphite](http://graphite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/), [InfluxDB](http://influxdb.org) and [OpenTSDB](http://opentsdb.net). There is also experimental support for [KairosDB](https://github.com/kairosdb/kairosdb), [Prometheus](http://prometheus.io/), and SQL is on the roadmap. Grafana has a variety of panels, including a fully featured graph panel with rich visualization options.
The back-end web server has a number of configuration options. Go the
[Configuration](/installation/configuration) page for details on all
those options.
Version 2.0 was released in April 2015: Grafana now ships with its own backend server that brings [many changes and features](../guides/whats-new-in-v2/).
Version 2.1 was released in July 2015 and added [even more features and enhancements](../guides/whats-new-in-v2-1/).
