Hands-On Monitoring and Alerting with Prometheus: Build Resilient, Real-time Monitoring and Alerting Systems Using Prometheus, PromQL, and Proven Best Practices for Modern Infrastructure (English Edition)
Build reliable, scalable monitoring and alerting systems with Prometheus, PromQL, and real-world demos
Key Features
● Learn how to install, configure, and optimize Prometheus from scratch to build scalable, production-ready setups.
● Work through step-by-step labs for Linux, Windows, Docker, and databases for analyzing metrics.
● Unlock powerful insights using PromQL to filter, aggregate, and alert on metrics to monitor complex systems with precision.
Book Description
Prometheus has emerged as the leading open-source monitoring solution for building resilient, observable systems, and Hands-On Monitoring and Alerting with Prometheus shows you exactly how to utilize its full potential.
The book begins with the fundamentals of modern monitoring and the core architecture of Prometheus. Through hands-on labs, you’ll master Prometheus service discovery, labeling, and relabeling to organize metrics at scale.
Whether you are collecting metrics from Linux machines, Windows servers, Docker containers, or databases, this book equips you with practical skills through real-world examples and tutorials. You will learn how to install and configure Prometheus, use its service discovery features, label and relabel metrics, and build powerful queries using PromQL - all leading to actionable insights through alerts and dashboards.
You’ll configure alerts and Alertmanager integrations, apply advanced techniques, and put everything together with real-world applications. Each chapter builds practical skills so you can confidently design and operate a robust observability stack.
Whether you're a DevOps engineer, SRE, or system architect, this book is your gateway to production-grade monitoring. Don’t just collect metrics—turn them into action with Prometheus today.
