Prometheus Monitoring Setup for kubernetes cluster

[ayishacs]

Prometheus is an open-source monitoring framework. It provides monitoring capabilities for the Kubernetes container orchestration platform.

Key features of prometheus are:

• Metric Endpoint: The systems that you want to monitor using Prometheus should expose the metrics on an /metrics endpoint.
• Metric Collection: Prometheus uses the pull model to retrieve metrics over HTTP.
• Prometheus Exporters: Exporters are libraries which converts existing metric from third-party apps to Prometheus metrics format.
• PromQL: Prometheus comes with PromQL, a very flexible query language that can be used to query the metrics in the Prometheus dashboard.
• TSDB: Prometheus uses TSDB for storing all the data. By default, all the data gets stored locally.
