Grafana Pyroscope is an open-source continuous profiling platform, an observability signal that complements metrics, logs, and traces. Where these indicate that a service is slow or resource-intensive, profiling reveals why and where precisely: it continuously measures the consumption of CPU, memory, and other resources, down to the line of code.

At the heart of the tool, flame graphs provide an immediate reading of an application's hotspots. Pyroscope allows you to compare profiles over time or between two versions, to validate an optimization or detect a performance regression — and in the process, reduce your resource bill.

Collection relies on SDKs in many languages (Go, Java, Python, Ruby, .NET…), on eBPF, or in pull mode via Grafana Alloy. Multi-tenant and aligned with the architecture of Grafana Loki, Mimir, and Tempo, Pyroscope integrates natively into Grafana to correlate all your signals. Managed by DINAO and hosted in France, it keeps your profiling data under your control.
