Open-source metrics monitoring and alerting
Prometheus is an open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit that collects time-series metrics via a pull model, stores them efficiently, and queries them with PromQL. A CNCF graduated project, it is a de facto standard for cloud-native and Kubernetes monitoring, often paired with Grafana and Alertmanager.
Prometheus targets DevOps, SRE, and platform teams that want powerful, self-hosted metrics monitoring. Prometheus is free and open source; costs come from self-hosting or managed offerings.
