Prometheus is a great solution for recording metrics to monitor cloud environments and infrastructure. It can gather metrics from a variety of commonly used techniques, such as Kubernetes. It also integrates nicely with data visualization platforms such as Grafana, so you can create dashboards based on the metrics. Alerts are also very useful for getting notified of situations in a timely manner.

It is a great solution for general metrics monitoring and notifications for IT infrastructure and Cloud environments. It is a mature product that has been around for some time. However, since it focuses on metrics, if you need a more complete Observability platform, there are more complete products out on the market.
