Prometheus is a leading open-source monitoring and alerting system designed to collect and process metrics as time series data, offering powerful querying, visualization, and alerting capabilities for modern dynamic environments.
Prometheus is a standalone open-source project and a leading monitoring solution, built around a time series database. It collects metrics from targets by scraping HTTP endpoints, stores them, runs rules over the data, and can trigger alerts.
Modern system architectures, particularly cloud-native and containerized environments, present challenges for traditional monitoring. Prometheus solves this by providing a flexible, pull-based metric collection model and powerful querying for dynamic service landscapes.
Multi-dimensional data model (time series defined by metric name and key/value pairs).
Flexible query language (PromQL) to slice and dice time series data.
No reliance on distributed storage; single server nodes are autonomous.
Time series collection happens via a pull model over HTTP.
Target discovery via service discovery or static configuration.
Alerting based on PromQL is handled by an Alertmanager.
Integration with various visualization tools, most notably Grafana.
Prometheus is widely adopted for monitoring in various environments, from traditional servers to complex cloud-native setups. Common use cases include:
Collects metrics from services running in Kubernetes clusters using service discovery and dynamic scraping.
Provides deep visibility into distributed applications, enabling rapid debugging and performance optimization.
Uses exporters to gather metrics from hosts (Node Exporter), databases (various database exporters), and network devices.
Ensures the health and performance of the underlying infrastructure supporting applications.
Tracks custom application-level metrics exposed via client libraries (e.g., request duration, error rates, queue sizes).
Gives developers and operations teams insight into application behavior and user experience.
Integrates with Alertmanager to define and route alerts based on thresholds or patterns in metric data.
Ensures critical issues are detected and acted upon quickly, minimizing downtime.
