Unlocking Performance Insights: A Guide to Grafana Profiles Drilldown with Rails on EKS

To enable Grafana Profiles Drilldown for your Rails application running in EKS, you'll need to introduce a continuous profiling backend to your existing stack. The key takeaway is that Grafana's Profiles Drilldown feature is powered by Grafana Pyroscope, not Loki.

This guide will walk you through the necessary additions and modifications to your Terraform configuration to integrate Pyroscope and instrument your Rails application for profiling.

The Interconnected Pieces: How It All Works

Here's a high-level overview of how the components will work together to provide you with profiling data in Grafana:
