Get under the hood of your application, with metrics! What is your slowest external call? What are your total daily interactions? Find out with Prometheus!
We’ll use Prometheus and Grafana to give us insights into your application. Prometheus will gather time series metrics, and Grafana will give a powerful display of them.
We’ll cover how to add instrumentation through the lens of a real-world application.
Finally, we'll get alerted about key metrics via the Prometheus AlertManager.
