Overall Satisfaction with Prometheus

As a web team lead, I guide and work on a lot of web applications. Websites need constant monitoring for a seamless user experience without application downtimes. We use it to monitor factors like latency, storage and any errors that are breaking the deployment. We try to modify the code with our team to decrease the latency and increase storage whenever needed. The alerts and notifications help us resolve and prevent breaking changes/issues. It reduces the need for a separate Devops team and automates all such stuff.
  • Alters and notifications about errors and breaking changes
  • Logging of data about the performance
  • Monitoring metrics like storage and latency
  • They could have built an inbuilt dashboard
