We use the term _backend plugin_ to denote that a plugin has a backend component. Still, normally a backend plugin requires frontend components as well. This is for example true for backend data source plugins which normally need configuration and query editor components implemented for the frontend.
Data source plugins can be extended with a backend component. In the future we plan to support additional types and possibly new kinds of plugins, such as [notifiers for Grafana alerting]({{< relref "../../../alerting/notifications/" >}}) and custom authentication to name a few.

## Use cases for implementing a backend plugin
The following examples gives you an idea of why you'd consider implementing a backend plugin:
- Enable [Grafana alerting]({{< relref "../../../alerting/" >}}) for data sources.
- Enable [Grafana Alerting]({{< relref "../../../alerting/" >}}) for data sources.
- Connect to non-HTTP services that normally can't be connected to from a web browser, e.g. SQL database servers.
- Keep state between users, e.g. query caching for data sources.
- Use custom authentication methods and/or authorization checks that aren't supported in Grafana.
