Grafana plugins enhance user experience with a wide range of functionalities such as querying data from a new data source for better insights and improved visualizations of that data. Broadly, there are three types of plugins and Amazon Managed Grafana supports all of them.

• Panel plugin: add new visualizations to your dashboard
• Datasource plugin: connect to a new database or other external source of data
• App plugin: an integrated out-of-the-box experience, often bundling data sources and panels
