I love the write-up. Not many graphing projects allow you to do real heatmaps (actually grafana and honeycomb are the only ones doing it natively as far as I know), but it’s the most important graph type in my experience. For example if you’re looking at a graph of request durations and can’t tell the difference between one of your slower paths not getting any traffic and everything being 50% faster, you’re going to be in trouble one day.

I agree that it is an exceptionally good how-to article.
