Grafana Development & Integration
Custom extensions, API integrations, and seamless embedding into your system landscape.
Standard software often covers 90% – we close the last gap. We develop Plugins, connect Grafana with your tools, and automate workflows.
Our Development Services
From API integration to complete custom solutions – we cover the entire spectrum.
API & Interface Integration
We make your systems talk to each other. Whether REST, GraphQL, or webhooks – we connect software with your CRM, ERP, or identity provider.
- Bidirectional data synchronization
- Third-party system connections
- Custom webhooks & event handlers
- Legacy system integrations
Custom Middleware & Logic
Often data formats from System A don't match System B. We develop middleware that sits in between, transforms data, and controls processes.
- Transformation layer (ETL)
- Data stream validation
- Caching layer for performance
- Microservices architecture
Embeddings & Custom Apps
Want to use software features in your own intranet or customer portal? We embed software headlessly and build custom UIs around it.
- White-label integration
- Custom dashboards (React/Vue)
- UI extension via plugins
- Mobile app customizations
Automation & Bots
Save manual work through intelligent automation. We develop bots and scripts that handle tasks automatically.
- ChatOps & slash commands
- Automated reporting
- Workflow orchestration
- Trigger-based actions
Custom Plugins & Data Sources
Grafana is more than just dashboards. It's a platform for observability apps. We develop native plugins that transform Grafana into a control center for your specific data sources.
Data Source Plugins (Go)
Standard data sources like Prometheus are often insufficient. We develop custom data source plugins in Go that directly connect proprietary APIs, legacy SQL databases, or IoT gateways – including query editor and alerting support.
Panel Plugins (React)
For special visualizations (e.g., machine layouts, wind turbine status), we develop custom panels in React. These use the Grafana Data Frame format and are fully interactive.
Grafana Apps
We bundle data sources, panels, and dashboards into complete 'Grafana Apps'. Ideal for delivering ready-made monitoring solutions to your end customers without them having to configure anything.
Concrete Use Cases
How we implement Grafana development in practice.
Proprietary API Integration
Your industrial devices deliver data via a special REST or SOAP API that Grafana doesn't natively support. External exporters are unstable.
A backend plugin in Go that communicates directly with the API, implements caching, and converts data into Grafana-compatible frames. Performant and maintainable.
Digital Twin Visualization
Standard graphs cannot intuitively represent the physical state of a plant. Operators need a visual site plan.
A custom panel plugin that renders SVG graphics of your plant and visualizes live values (temperature, RPM) directly on the components with color coding.
Compliance Reporting
Dashboard screenshots are insufficient for audits. Generated PDFs with specific layouts and comments are required.
We use the rendering API to generate automated reports, enrich them with metadata, and send them via email or store them in the DMS.
Development with Foresight
Update-safe, scalable, and secure – why you should trust us with your development.
Update-safe (No Core Hacking)
We don't modify the open-source software's source code. Instead, we use official APIs and plugin architectures. Your installation remains updatable and maintainable.
Full-Stack Expertise
We understand not just the code, but the infrastructure beneath it. Our developers know how queries affect database performance and how to build scalable APIs.
Modern Tech Stack
We use modern, type-safe technologies: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, Go. Plus PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker/Kubernetes for infrastructure.
Security by Design
Every line of code is written with security in mind. Input sanitization, secure authentication (OAuth2/OIDC), and compliance with data protection regulations are standard.
Our Tech Stack
How We Work
From requirements to go-live – transparent and structured.
Analysis
We review API documentation, analyze your requirements, and identify optimal integration points.
Architecture
We design the solution: middleware, plugin, or script. Data flows, interfaces, and security concept are defined.
Development
Agile implementation with code reviews, automated tests, and continuous coordination. You see progress in real-time.
Deployment
Integration into your CI/CD pipeline or hosting on our infrastructure. Documentation and training included.

What do our customers say?
Aleksandr Shuliko
CTO, EVA Real Estate, UAE
"I recently worked with Timo and the WZ-IT team, and honestly, it turned out to be one of the best tech decisions I have made for my business. Right from the start, Timo took the time to walk me through every step in a simple and calm way. No matter how many questions I had, he never rushed me. The results speak for themselves. With WZ-IT, we reduced our monthly expenses from $1,300 down to $250. This was a huge win for us."

"WZ-IT manages our Proxmox cluster reliably and professionally. The team handles continuous monitoring and regular updates for us and responds very quickly to any issues or inquiries. They also configure new nodes, systems, and applications that we need to add to our cluster. With WZ-IT's proactive support, our cluster and the business-critical applications running on it remain stable, and high availability is consistently ensured. We value the professional collaboration and the noticeable relief it brings to our daily operations."
Gabriel Sanz Señor
CEO, Odiseo Solutions, Spain
"Counting on WZ-IT team was crucial, their expertise and solutions gave us the pace to deploy in production our services, even suggesting and performing improvements over our configuration and setup. We expect to keep counting on them for continuous maintenance of our services and implementation of new solutions."
Timo and Robin from WZ-IT set up a RocketChat server for us - and I couldn't be more satisfied! From the initial consultation to the final implementation, everything was absolutely professional, efficient, and to my complete satisfaction. I particularly appreciate the clear communication, transparent pricing, and the comprehensive expertise that both bring to the table. Even after the setup, they take care of the maintenance, which frees up my time enormously and allows me to focus on other important areas of my business - with the good feeling that our IT is in the best hands. I can recommend WZ-IT without reservation and look forward to continuing our collaboration! (translated)
We have had very good experiences with Mr. Wevelsiep and WZ-IT. The consultation was professional, clearly understandable, and at fair prices. The team not only implemented our requirements but also thought along and proactively. Instead of just processing individual tasks, they provided us with well-founded explanations that strengthened our own understanding. WZ-IT took a lot of pressure off us with their structured approach - that was exactly what we needed and is the reason why we keep coming back. (translated)
Robin and Timo provided excellent support during our migration from AWS to Hetzner! We received truly competent advice and will gladly return to their services in the future. (translated)
WZ-IT set up our Jitsi Meet Server anew - professional, fast, and reliable. (translated)
