Are you looking for a Prometheus tutorial to teach you metric collection and monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana? Look no further!
Prometheus is a free, powerful time-series database that monitors microservices and infrastructure (e.g., Kubernetes). Its flexible query language, PromQL, lets you record real-time metrics and generate valuable insights.
This course is tailored for developers, DevOps Engineers, and Solution Architects who want to learn Prometheus and Grafana's observability stack and apply it to their work.
You'll learn how to set up and configure Prometheus, Grafana, and Grafana Loki on Linux, Windows, and Mac, as well as with Docker. This powerful stack will enable you to collect metrics and logs and visualise them with professional-looking dashboards in Grafana.
Prometheus is thoroughly explored in this course and covers Functions, Alerting, Recording Rules, Short-lived Jobs, Push Gateway, and Security.
Grafana is also adequately covered with lectures that teach you how to install Grafana, create dashboards, create alerting rules, notify management, and administer Grafana.
Metrics are not the only signal that matters in the realm of observability. Logs play a crucial role in identifying and, more importantly, diagnosing the root cause of the problems. That is why the course has a section specifically for Grafana Loki, Grafana Lab's log collection and analysis tool.
This course is continuously updated to make sure you will stay up-to-date with latest changes and additions of Grafana and Prometheus.
