Tutorial Series
We will learn how to query Prometheus 1.3.1. In order to have fitting example data to work with, we will set up three identical demo service instances that export synthetic metrics of various kinds. We will then set up a Prometheus server to scrape and store those metrics. Using the example metrics, we will then learn how to query Prometheus, beginning with simple queries and moving on to more advanced ones.
