What problem does it solve?

Prometheus-based configuration for comprehensive metric collection, storage, and alerting across infrastructure and applications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configure metric scraping, recording rules, and alert rules for Kubernetes and non-Kubernetes environments.
  • Create dashboards and visualizations to monitor system health and service performance.
  • Use cases include incident response, capacity planning, and trend analysis.

Quick Start

Install Prometheus via Helm or Docker Compose, then apply the scrape_configs, recording rules, and alert rules to start collecting metrics and generating alerts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure Prometheus scrape configs and recording rules for Kubernetes?

Configure Prometheus scrape configs and recording rules by applying standardized templates to collect metrics across Kubernetes clusters. This includes setting up scrape_configs, recording rules, and alert rules to start collecting metrics and generating alerts.

Can I use this Prometheus configuration with Docker Compose instead of Helm?

Yes, this Prometheus configuration supports installation via Docker Compose as well as Helm. You can deploy Prometheus using either method, then apply scrape_configs, recording rules, and alert rules to begin metric collection and alerting.

What is the best way to set up Prometheus alerting and dashboards for on-prem environments?

The best way to set up Prometheus alerting for on-prem environments is to apply unified scrape_configs, recording rules, and alert rules. You can then create dashboards and visualizations to monitor system health and service performance.

Does this Prometheus setup work for both infrastructure and application monitoring?

Yes, this Prometheus setup works for comprehensive monitoring of both infrastructure and applications. It automates metric collection, storage, and alerting across infrastructure components and application services for system health and performance.

How do I validate Prometheus recording rules and alert rules before deployment?

Validate Prometheus recording rules and alert rules using the included validation tooling. This ensures your rule configurations are correct before applying them to collect metrics and generate alerts in your environment.

Why do I need recording rules in my Prometheus monitoring setup?

Recording rules are needed in Prometheus monitoring to precompute frequently needed or computationally expensive expressions. They save results as new time series, improving dashboard performance and alerting efficiency for capacity planning and trend analysis.
