Integration with Prometheus

Prometheus is a monitoring and alerting toolkit developed as a standalone open-source project. The Prometheus ecosystem consists of:

• the main Prometheus server which scrapes and stores time series data
• client libraries
• a push gateway
• exporters for services
• an alertmanager.

Monitoring Studio X users can:

• expose PATROL numeric parameters in Prometheus with the PATROL Agent Exporter for Prometheus

• import any Prometheus exporter to Monitoring Studio X using the prometheusExporterTemplate.cfg template.
