CNCF-graduated open-source monitoring toolkit standard for Kubernetes and cloud-native infrastructure; PromQL, pull-based scraping, and Alertmanager with managed offerings from Grafana Labs and cloud providers.
Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit — originally developed at SoundCloud in 2012 and donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in 2016, where it became the second CNCF project to graduate (after Kubernetes). Prometheus collects time-series metrics from applications and infrastructure through a pull-based model (scraping HTTP endpoints), stores them in a local time-series database, and provides PromQL (Prometheus Query Language) for flexible metric analysis and alert definition. The Prometheus ecosystem is maintained by the open-source community with major contributions from Grafana Labs, Red Hat, and cloud providers.
