Overview Prometheus is the leading open source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit, adopted as a Cloud Native Computing Foundation graduated project. This image delivers Prometheus fully installed and configured from the official binary release, so a working metrics collection and alerting system is running within minutes of launch.
Monitoring Stack Prometheus running as a systemd service, installed from the official prometheus.io binary tarball. The default scrape configuration monitors Prometheus itself, giving immediate visibility into the system. Additional scrape targets are added by editing the prometheus.yml configuration file. The Prometheus expression browser and built-in alerting engine are available on port 9090.
Production-Ready Storage Prometheus time series data is stored on a dedicated, independently resizable EBS volume. The TSDB data directory is mounted at boot via filesystem UUID for stability across instance reboots and AMI launches. Storage retention and compaction are controlled via Prometheus command-line flags.
Ready to Use The Prometheus service, configuration file, and data volume are all prepared at launch. Browse to the Prometheus web interface, run PromQL queries, configure scrape targets, and build alerting rules. No manual installation or configuration required.
