Prometheus is a popular open-source monitoring system and time series database written in Go, featuring a multi-dimensional data model and a flexible query language. It provides client libraries for instrumenting application code, exporters for monitoring other services, and an alert manager for raising alerts. Data from Prometheus can be visualised and explored using Grafana.
Delivered on our behalf by Prometheus project co-founder Julius Volz, this two day hands-on workshop held in London teaches Prometheus fundamentals for sysadmins, developers and DevOps engineers alike.
