# What's New in Grafana v4.6
|
|
|
|
Grafana v4.6 brings many enhancements to Annotations, Cloudwatch & Prometheus. It also adds support for Postgres as metric & table data source!
|
|
|
|
### Annotations
|
|
|
|
{{< docs-imagebox img="/img/docs/v46/add_annotation_region.png" max-width= "800px" >}}
|
|
|
|
You can now add annotation events and regions right from the graph panel! Just hold CTRL/CMD + click or drag region to open the **Add Annotation** view. The
|
|
[Annotations]({{< relref "reference/annotations.md" >}}) documentation is updated to include details on this new exciting feature.
|
|
|
|
### Cloudwatch
|
|
|
|
Cloudwatch now supports alerting. Setup alert rules for any Cloudwatch metric!

|
|
|
|
### Postgres
|
|
|
|
Grafana v4.6 now ships with a built-in datasource plugin for Postgres. Have logs or metric data in Postgres? You can now visualize that data and
|
|
define alert rules on it like any of our other data sources.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Prometheus
|
|
|
|
New enhancements include support for **instant queries** and improvements to query editor in the form of autocomplete for label names and label values.
|
|
This makes exploring and filtering Prometheus data much easier.
