Overview

The Prometheus Operator provides Kubernetes native deployment and management of Prometheus and related monitoring components. The purpose of this project is to simplify and automate the configuration of a Prometheus based monitoring stack for Kubernetes clusters.

The Prometheus Operator facilitates the deployment and management of Prometheus and related monitoring components within Kubernetes using the core Prometheus operator pod. Its primary goal is to streamline and automate the setup of a Prometheus-based monitoring stack for Kubernetes clusters based on the Prometheus operator version.

The Prometheus operator includes, but is not limited to, the following features:

  • Kubernetes Custom Resources: Use Kubernetes custom resources to deploy and manage Prometheus, Alertmanager, and related components.
  • Simplified Deployment Configuration: Configure the fundamentals of Prometheus like versions, persistence, retention policies, and replicas from a native Kubernetes resource.
  • Prometheus Target Configuration: Automatically generate monitoring target configurations based on familiar Kubernetes label queries; no need to learn a Prometheus specific configuration language.

For an introduction to the Prometheus Operator, see the getting started guide.

When one installs Prometheus operator, some of the features of the Prometheus operator include:

  • The ability to use Kubernetes custom resources to deploy and manage Prometheus, Alertmanager, and related components.
  • Simplified configuration for basic Prometheus functionalities such as versions, persistence, retention policies, and replicas using native Kubernetes resources.
  • Automatic generation of monitoring target configurations based on Kubernetes label queries, eliminating the need to learn a Prometheus-specific configuration language.
