Nerding out about Prometheus and observability with Julius Volz, PromLabs/Prometheus
In this episode of Nerding Out with Viktor, host Viktor Petersson dives deep into the world of observability with special guest Julius Volz, co-founder of Prometheus and founder of PromLab. As they geek out over monitoring systems, Julius shares his expertise on the technical aspects of Prometheus, including its dimensional data model, query language (PromQL), and efficient handling of time series data.
The conversation covers best practices in server monitoring, the power of alert managers, and the challenges of long-term data storage, with insights into solutions like Cortex and Thanos. Julius also showcases the simplicity and flexibility of writing Prometheus exporters, even for those without extensive coding knowledge. Get ready to be inspired by unique use cases of Prometheus in industries such as wind power, shipping, and transportation.
Tune in to learn about emerging trends in observability, including the role of eBPF in Prometheus, integration with OpenTelemetry, and the evolution of the OpenMetrics project. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in monitoring systems, observability, and the future of IT operations management.
