# ZOS Monitoring
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ZOS collects data from deployed solutions and applications and presents data in a well known open source monitoring solution called prometheus.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit originally built at SoundCloud. Since its inception in 2012, many companies and organizations have adopted Prometheus, and the project has a very active developer and user community. It is now a standalone open source project and maintained independently of any company.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
### Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- a multi-dimensional data model with time series data identified by metric name and key/value pairs
|
||
|
|
- PromQL, a flexible query language to leverage this dimensionality
|
||
|
|
- no reliance on distributed storage; single server nodes are autonomous
|
||
|
|
- time series collection happens via a pull model over HTTP
|
||
|
|
- pushing time series is supported via an intermediary gateway
|
||
|
|
- targets are discovered via service discovery or static configuration
|
||
|
|
- multiple modes of graphing and dashboarding support
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Components
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Prometheus ecosystem consists of multiple components, many of which are optional:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- the main Prometheus server which scrapes and stores time series data
|
||
|
|
- client libraries for instrumenting application code
|
||
|
|
- a push gateway for supporting short-lived jobs
|
||
|
|
- special-purpose exporters for services like HAProxy, StatsD, Graphite, etc.
|
||
|
|
- an alertmanager to handle alerts
|
||
|
|
- various support tools
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Roadmap
