Prometheus

Prometheus is a flexible, extensible monitoring and alerting system built specifically for cloud-native and containerized environments. It collects metrics through pull-based scraping, stores them efficiently in a time series database and enables precise queries and analysis with PromQL.

What sets Prometheus apart:

  • Open source and a CNCF project: a widely adopted standard tool for observability

  • Time series data storage: efficient storage and querying of metrics

  • Flexible querying: a powerful query language (PromQL) for complex analysis

  • Easy integration: seamless connection to exporters, services and system components

  • Alerting and notifications: integrated Alertmanager module for rules and escalations

  • High reliability: runs independently without an external database

  • Scalability: easy horizontal expansion and federation between Prometheus instances

This makes Prometheus the foundation of many modern observability stacks. Together with tools such as Grafana or Alertmanager, it forms a robust basis for monitoring distributed systems, applications and services.

Our experience with Prometheus in customer projects

We use Prometheus as the central metrics backend in all of our customer projects. With it we monitor hardware conditions such as load, traffic or temperatures and capture application metrics at the same time. Current values are always available, so we can observe systems reliably, detect problems early and analyze them on solid ground.

Our contribution to stable Prometheus environments

We plan, implement and operate Prometheus setups designed for reliability and extensibility. Our expertise covers installing and configuring Prometheus, building useful dashboards, securing and scaling the systems, and performance optimization and audits of existing environments. This ensures that metrics are captured consistently, evaluated and put to good use in day-to-day operations.

Why we are the right partner for Prometheus

  • Experience building and operating scalable monitoring infrastructure

  • A combination of technical depth and practical system observation

  • Integration of Prometheus into holistic observability stacks

  • A focus on stability, security and clear visualization of operational data
