Observe your GitHub repos efficiently

Whether you are just starting your journey as a DevOps Engineer or already an expert SRE, you need to use Git (e.g. GitHub, GtlLab) to maintain your code and track issues, PRs, commits, etc. You start with a few repos but then it becomes difficult to get visibility into what's going on in a complex app when it's scattered across 20 different GitHub repos.

In this talk, we will demonstrate an example of how to monitor your GitHub repo using the GitHub Data source plugin that allows you to represent data e.g. open/close issues, PRs and other various statuses visually in Grafana dashboards and gives a dynamic and user-centric dashboard experience either for your personal projects or for the entire team. Later, we see more advanced features to get better observability.

In addition to that, the audience will know that there are useful Open-source tools and Plugins (such as GitHub and GitLab) that they can use instead of relying totally on enterprise ones for monitoring and observability.
