Course Description

If you're in a DevOps, Cloud or SRE role, you'll understand how important monitoring & alerting is. You cannot build a successful application, or run a company without having a system that monitors your systems and applications and reports when something goes wrong. You need instrumentation in order to be successful.

Prometheus is the leading open-source monitoring system that can collect metrics from all your systems, including Linux servers, Windows Servers, Database Servers and any application you have written. It's inspired on Google's Borgmon, which uses time-series data as a datasource, to then send alerts based on this data.

This course will show you how to install and configure Prometheus on a Linux server. This course will use a VM on DigitalOcean, but you can install Prometheus on any modern Linux OS. We'll show you how to make visualizations (graphs) using Grafana. When building these graphs, you'll get to know PromQL, the language to query Prometheus and get meaningful data displayed. You'll also learn how to setup alerts to receive notifications when something goes wrong. Lastly, we have a section on use-cases to showcase you some real world examples.

You get a $100 DigitalOcean coupon when you enter a valid payment method to be able to install Prometheus on DigitalOcean.

We have both worked in the Tech/Finance industry in San Fransisco, New York City and London. We now run a consultancy business where we help our clients implement their Cloud & DevOps strategy. Using our expertise, we can deliver you this great training with real world examples and guide you when you have questions.

Enroll in this course now and install, configure and use Prometheus. Become great at monitoring your infrastructure!

so far

By Caio Vinicius on 12/13/2020

Good course, I recommend for people don't know about prometheus and would to know how use it.

By Viimar Lindau on 12/6/2020

Great course! I learned many new things about Prometheus and Grafana. Also got many new tricks how to use those tools in more effective manner. Totally recommend this course. Thank you!

By Jh on 10/31/2020

This course is definitely worth it. Github scripts, projects, and the videos running the commands on the terminal were really helpful to understand and follow the steps at home. Feedback: - I would have liked to see diagrams before explaining concepts or use cases, so I can understand the big picture before going into the details. - Core concepts were superficially explained, like PromQL language, histogram, summary, etc. I hoped we would cover some of these topics more in depth. - Record videos in at least 1080p resolution. 720p makes text too blurry.

Excellent coverage, Down to the earth examples, really like it. There is some problem with volume of the voice. could have been more consistent

By Jason Epstein on 9/27/2020

Really great lectues and demos from Edward and Jorn! They explain what they are doing, and are helping me learn a valuable tool (Prometheus) used widely throughout the DevOps world.

By Dineth Senevirathne on 9/24/2020

Has a good overall explanation on Prometheus. It will be better if there are some guides to configure Prometheus + Alert Manager + Node Exporter + Grafana in local PCs which runs on Windows and Mac OS.
