What is Prometheus?

Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit. It collects and stores metrics as time series data, meaning metrics are stored with a timestamp. Prometheus is commonly used for monitoring infrastructure and applications by scraping metrics from instrumented jobs, evaluating rule expressions, triggering alerts, and visualizing data using tools like Grafana.
