2) How Prometheus works? What are targets and metrics?
3) How does Prometheus collect those metrics from its targets?
4) Furthermore, I explain Prometheus Architecture with simple diagrams and animations and go through the main components: Prometheus Server, Pushgateway, Alertmanager

@@TechWorldwithNana I have a doubt with respect to Prometheus setup for Django applications. If we have a load balancer which redirects to three application servers where the Django applications are running. Which of these setups will work and is optimally correct? 1. Having Prometheus installed in one of the application servers and then having a job for every Django application we need to monitor and provide all three application server's Django configuration details in the targets entry in prometheus.yml? - One more doubt, in this case, is when the targets are authenticated using OAuth, how can we manage in this scenario? 2. Installing Prometheus on any server and mentioning all the Django applications details in the targets entry in prometheus.yml file? - Do we need to have ssh trust set up in this case when the setup has to be done like this? It will be very helpful if you please give some insights on this. Thanks in advance :)

ty for this, i learned prometheus a couple years ago and have been somewhat managing it and it was clear to me there was a much easier way to represent that documentation. i think this is great and should sit on the front page of prometheus docs itself.

@CaryZhuangzhiLi 2 роки тому

Nana, thank you for the fantastic video! I have a few questions on the push/pull method comparison that started around 12:41. 12:41 - Isn't network traffic determined by the amount of data that's collected? So if the monitoring targets and granularity are the same, the push or pull model would generate the same network traffic, right? 13:02 - Using daemons to push metrics for an application that doesn't have library support. I thought this would be very similar to applications that don't have native Prometheus support - it has to use an exporter sidecar to provide a scraping endpoint. It seems to me these are the same between the two models. 13:23 - Better detection if service is up and running. I also agree to pull model works better in most cases. For the push method, when the monitoring server detects service is not pushing data, it can also treat it as a failure. The pull model is a bit more straightforward, and it sees problems very quickly. However, it could also suffer from network problems. So I thought both methods could trigger potential false alarms the same way.

Great video as always Nana. I just have one (tiny) comment on the directions of the arrows that you used to annotate the dataflow, sometimes it can be confusing. For example at 7:00 (Main component : Prometheus Server), I eventually understood it perfectly, but before that I got confused of where should the data (metrics) go as I followed the directions of the arrows. Maybe it is just me. Thank you so much. P/S and I would love to see your video on Sysdig (and Falco) and how it is different from Prometheus. Cheers.
