The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) has released Prometheus 1.0, an open source tool for monitoring cloud computing and containerized IT environments. The new tool is part of the CNCF’s efforts to enable container-based clouds.
Prometheus was originally developed by SoundCloud, and developers say that Google is already using Prometheus internally to monitor its container-based workloads. The CNCF also hosts Kubernetes, another container-related open source project that has become very popular.
