| 10 | ## Purpose |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Configure Prometheus for comprehensive metric collection, alerting, and monitoring of infrastructure and applications. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | ## When to Use |
| 15 | |
| 16 | - Set up Prometheus monitoring |
| 17 | - Configure metric scraping |
| 18 | - Create recording rules |
| 19 | - Design alert rules |
| 20 | - Implement service discovery |
| 21 | |
| 22 | ## Detailed patterns and worked examples |
| 23 | |
| 24 | Detailed pattern documentation lives in `references/details.md`. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | ## Best Practices |
| 27 | |
| 28 | 1. **Use consistent naming** for metrics (prefix_name_unit) |
| 29 | 2. **Set appropriate scrape intervals** (15-60s typical) |
| 30 | 3. **Use recording rules** for expensive queries |
| 31 | 4. **Implement high availability** (multiple Prometheus instances) |
| 32 | 5. **Configure retention** based on storage capacity |
| 33 | 6. **Use relabeling** for metric cleanup |
| 34 | 7. **Monitor Prometheus itself** |
| 35 | 8. **Implement federation** for large deployments |
| 36 | 9. **Use Thanos/Cortex** for long-term storage |
| 37 | 10. **Document custom metrics** |
| 38 | |
| 39 | ## Troubleshooting |
| 40 | |
| 41 | **Check scrape targets:** |
| 42 | |
| 43 | ```bash |
| 44 | curl http://localhost:9090/api/v1/targets |
| 45 | ``` |
| 46 | |
| 47 | **Check configuration:** |
| 48 | |
| 49 | ```bash |
| 50 | curl http://localhost:9090/api/v1/status/config |
| 51 | ``` |
| 52 | |
| 53 | **Test query:** |
| 54 | |
| 55 | ```bash |
| 56 | curl 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=up' |
| 57 | ``` |
