Sloth generates understandable, uniform and reliable Prometheus SLOs for any kind of service. Using a simple SLO spec that results in multiple metrics and multi window multi burn alerts.

After the experience of the service level operator and Asadito, I wanted something similar and to be available for everyone, and like everything that I develop in my free time, OSS.

Today I had the pleasure of releasing Prometheus 2.28 in my function as a member of the Prometheus Team. While there are many changes in this release, let's take a look at some of the most relevant new features for users:

Most alerting rules are common to every Prometheus setup. We need a place to find them all.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to easily create service health SLOs on Kubernetes with Prometheus, an open source time-series database, and Linkerd, an open source ultralight service mesh. You’ll see how using a service mesh can solve one of the hardest parts of SLOs: getting consistent metrics for the things you want to measure.

Three years ago, Tom Wilkie and Frederic Branczyk sketched out the idea for Prometheus monitoring mixins. This is a jsonnet-based package format for grouping and distributing logically related Grafana dashboards with Prometheus alerts and rules.

Tobs is a tool that aims to make it as easy as possible to install a full observability stack into a Kubernetes cluster.

PromQL is a built in query-language made for Prometheus. Here at Timber we've found Prometheus to be awesome, but PromQL difficult to wrap our heads around. This is our attempt to change that.

When planning a Prometheus deployment you might have gotten the impression that Prometheus isn't designed for more than 2 weeks of storage, so if you want more you have to use a clustered storage system such as Thanos, Cortex, or M3DB. This is however a common misconception.

This release changes WAL compression from opt-in to default. WAL compression will prevent a downgrade to v2.10 or earlier without deleting the WAL. Disable WAL compression explicitly by setting the command line flag --no-storage.tsdb.wal-compression if you require downgrading to v2.10 or earlier.

A Kubernetes node connectivity tool that preforms frequent tests (tcp, udp and dns), and exposes Prometheus metrics that are enriched with the node name, and the locality information (such as zone), enabling you to correlate issues between availability zones or nodes.

VictoriaMetrics is fast, cost-effective and scalable time-series database.

What can you do with the prometheus-specific feature of relabeling? Look how you can change, add, remove metrics, config, and label within Prometheus with this talk I have given at PromCon Munich.
