Monitor and Optimize Analytic Workloads on Amazon EMR with Prometheus and Grafana
This post discusses installing and configuring Prometheus and Grafana on an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance, configuring an EMR cluster to emit metrics that Prometheus can scrape from the cluster, and using the Grafana dashboards to analyze the metrics for a workload on the EMR cluster and optimize it. Additionally, we also cover how Prometheus can push alerts to the Alertmanager, and configuring Amazon SNS to send email notifications.
