					<description><![CDATA[What is Prometheus?
# Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting.

Architecture of Prometheus?
#Prometheus scrapes metrics from instrumented jobs, either directly or via an intermediary push gateway for short-lived jobs. It stores all scraped samples locally and runs rules over this data to either aggregate and record new time series from existing data or generate alerts.&#160;Grafana or other API consumers can be used to visualize the collected data.

Components of Prometheus?
#
-Prometheus server
-Targets and service discovery
-Metrics and Time series data
-Alert manager
-Client libraries and Exporters.

					<description><![CDATA[What is Prometheus?

Its an opensource monitoring tool monitoring solution for collecting and aggregating metrics as time series data

Architecture of Prometheus?

Prometheus’ fundamental architecture is simple and centered on the server, which collects and stores time series data. The Prometheus server, a time-series database, a user interface, alerts, and several service discovery techniques are a few examples of the various parts that make up the overall architecture. For gathering metrics data, Prometheus uses a pull-based methodology. This differs from many other monitoring systems, which employ a push model. At certain intervals, Prometheus scrapes or grabs metrics from the applications rather than having the apps push their metrics to the system. By doing away with the necessity for application-side permissions, this paradigm streamlines the system’s management and security features. You can install and execute a single binary to use as Prometheus’ main server. The server executes tasks that scrape metric data from instrumented apps and localize it.

Components of Prometheus?
1&#160;Prometheus Server
2&#160;Data retrieval worker
3&#160;Time Series DataBase(TSDB)
4&#160;HTTP Server
5&#160;Node Exporters
	- Apache
	- mysql
	- haproxy
	- windows

6&#160;Push gateway
5&#160;Alert Manager

Types of rules?

Recording rules and alerting rules

Recording rules: These rules are used for pre-calculating frequently used or computationally expensive queries. The results of recording rules are saved into their own time series.
Alerting rules: Alerting rules allow you to specify conditions based on Prometheus expression language expressions. When the alert expression results in one or more vector elements at a given point in time, the alert counts as active for these elements’ label sets. You can then send notifications about firing alerts to an external service. Alerting rules are based on PromQL queries

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;span&gt;What is Prometheus?&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Prometheus is&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;an open-source monitoring solution written in Go that collects metrics data and stores&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&#160;that data in a time series database&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span&gt;Architecture of Prometheus?&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span&gt;The architecture of Prometheus consists of several key&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;components that work together to collect, store, and process metrics data&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span&gt;Components of Prometheus?&lt;/span&gt;

1. *Prometheus Server*: Responsible for scraping and storing metrics.
2. *Data Storage*: Stores the time-series data efficiently.
3. *PromQL*: The query language to extract metrics from the database.
4. *Service Discovery*: Mechanisms to discover target endpoints.
5. *Exporters*: Collects metrics from third-party services (e.g., Node Exporter for OS-level metrics).
6. *Alertmanager*: Manages alerts and routes notifications.
7. *Visualization Tools*: Such as Grafana for visualizing the metrics.


&lt;span&gt;Types of rules?&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Prometheus supports two types of rules which may be configured and then evaluated at regular intervals:&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;recording rules and alerting rules&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;


&lt;span&gt;Top 10 Node Exporter PromQL&lt;/span&gt;

1. *CPU Usage*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;100 - (avg by (instance) (rate(node_cpu_seconds_total{mode=&quot;idle&quot;}[5m])) * 100)
&#160;&#160;

2. *Memory Usage*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;100 * (1 - (node_memory_MemAvailable_bytes / node_memory_MemTotal_bytes))
&#160;&#160;

3. *Disk I/O Utilization*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;rate(node_disk_io_time_seconds_total[5m]) * 100
&#160;&#160;

4. *Disk Space Usage*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;100 * (1 - node_filesystem_free_bytes / node_filesystem_size_bytes)
&#160;&#160;

5. *Network Traffic*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;rate(node_network_receive_bytes_total[5m]) + rate(node_network_transmit_bytes_total[5m])
&#160;&#160;

6. *Load Average*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;node_load1
&#160;&#160;

7. *Swap Usage*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;100 * (node_memory_SwapTotal_bytes - node_memory_SwapFree_bytes) / node_memory_SwapTotal_bytes
&#160;&#160;

8. *System Uptime*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;node_time_seconds - node_boot_time_seconds
&#160;&#160;

9. *File Descriptors Usage*:
&#160;&#160;promql
&#160;&#160;node_filefd_allocated
&#160;&#160;

10. *Temperature Monitoring*:
&#160;&#160;promql

					<description><![CDATA[What is Prometheus?
Is an application used for event monitoring and alerting. It records metrics in a time series database built using an HTTP pull model, with flexible queries and real-time alerting

Architecture of Prometheus?
There is a Prometheus server pulling metrics from targets and saving it to storage. Then it can send data to Alertmanager to notify based on rules, and data can be explored using PromQL.

The main Prometheus server which scrapes and stores time series data
Client libraries for instrumenting application code
A push gateway for supporting short-lived jobs
