### ** Data Source **
Grafana supports many different storage backends for your time series data (Data Source). Each Data Source has a specific Query Editor that is customized for the features and capabilities that the particular Data Source exposes.
The following datasources are officially supported: [Graphite](/datasources/graphite/), [InfluxDB](/datasources/influxdb/), [OpenTSDB](/datasources/opentsdb/), and [KairosDB](/datasources/kairosdb)

The query language and capabilities of each Data Source are obviously very different. You can combine data from multiple Data Sources onto a single Dashboard, but each Panel is tied to a specific Data Source that belongs to a particular Organization.

Panels can be dragged and dropped and rearranged on the Dashboard. They can also be resized.
There are currently four Panel types: [Graph](/reference/graph/), [Singlestat](/reference/singlestat/), [Dashlist](/reference/dashlist/), and [Text](/reference/text/).

Panels like the [Graph](/reference/graph/) panel allow you to graph as many metrics and series as you want. Other panels like [Singlestat](/reference/singlestat/) require a reduction of a single query into a single number. [Dashlist](/reference/dashlist/) and [Text](/reference/text/) are special panels that do not connect to any Data Source.

You can use the [Snapshot](/reference/sharing/#snapshots) feature to encode all the data currently being viewed into a static and interactive JSON document; it's so much better than emailing a screenshot!
