The correct approach would be to simply emit StatsD metrics which can be directly consumed from Grafana to give all the same numbers
There are several opstions, you can also use eventlogging + presto + superset as dashboarding system: https://superset.wikimedia.org/superset/welcome
Grphana is not the best fit for multidimensional data
