Why Prometheus Monitoring?

Prometheus is transforming observability for cloud-native applications and services. As an open source project, Prometheus offers a standard way to collect, store, and query metrics across containers, Kubernetes, services, and applications. Because Sysdig Monitor is fully compatible with Prometheus, you can take advantage of enterprise features without sacrificing your investment in the Prometheus ecosystem.

We have built so much around Prometheus, and with Sysdig, we are able to really use those metrics. Sysdig’s support of Prometheus is unique, along with its support for PromQL.”
