Monitoring with Prometheus

Monitoring is crucial for understanding your application's health and performance. It helps you catch issues early, debug problems, and ensure a smooth user experience.

• Performance: Is your API fast enough?
• Availability: Is your service online and responding?
• Errors: Are there unexpected failures?
• Resource Usage: How much CPU, memory, or disk space is being used?

Without monitoring, you're flying blind!

Prometheus is an open-source monitoring system designed for reliability and scalability. It collects metrics from your applications and infrastructure, storing them as time-series data.

Think of it as a vigilant observer, constantly gathering data points about your system's behavior over time.
