    Hi! This video is an excellent example of how to share knowledge in the best possible way. By the way, are you a native German speaker? You sound so close to a colleague of mine from Frankfurt. I love your video and appreciate that you make such impressive recordings. Cheers!

    Great video! Suggestion for future videos: try a smaller browser window to make things easier to read for folks with smaller screens.

      Hah! Already working on that and some zoom for the next videos ☺️ Thanks!

    I have some python service files , in that I need to identify memory leakages.For this ,prometheus may helps me??
    To monitor how memory is increasing...sudden increase in memory may leads to memory leakage.

      Hi, for such specific usage scenarios and questions, the public community channels like the users mailing list (see prometheus.io/community/) are usually a great place to ask!

    How do you not blink in the into?

    Do you have any video related to building Prometheus using source code, if you have please share it

    • @PromLabs
      @PromLabs  2 місяці тому

      I don't have any video on that yet, as I'm focusing more on basic Prometheus usage rather than development / building from source.

    Damn, got already lost at 1:20......sue downloading the file yes so far so good and then suddenly you change to Terminal comand lines....How the heck do you conect the downloaded file which is on the PC at that moment to the make it be able to get unpacked from within Terminal????? or is this only possible with Macs??

    • @PromLabs
      @PromLabs  Місяць тому

      I'm on Linux (that's why I'm downloading the Linux binary), so I just switched from my browser to my terminal, both locally on the same computer. That'll look similar on macOS and probably also on Windows, although Windows is not a Unix environment (so the available terminal commands will differ unless you use something like WSL, Windows Subsystem for Linux). Generally I assume for my videos that people have a decent level of IT/admin experience already, so I only focus on the Prometheus-specific questions.

    did you use any AI software for the eye contact, because you didn't even blink in 44 seconds?

    • @PromLabs
      @PromLabs  2 місяці тому

      Haha, no! I was reading off a teleprompter at fixed speed. This should be much better in the more recent videos, where I used a remote control to be able to pause the script, breathe, and blink :)

  • @alexandersuvorov2002
    @alexandersuvorov2002 11 місяців тому

    I think for the demo is better to show some standard and pretty much universal metrics such as CPU and memory usage. All these weird queries make it harder to understand what's going on.

    • @PromLabs
      @PromLabs  11 місяців тому +1

      Well, this was only intended as a minimal "get the server running" setup video with Prometheus only monitoring itself, so there's not many interesting metrics to show yet in the first place. Check out the "Monitoring Host Metrics" video for more real-world metrics and data: ua-cam.com/video/dcb59H_iLj4/v-deo.html

      @@PromLabs Will check this out, thank you! I’m tasked to deploy Prometheus at our organization kubernetes and to be honest it’s not as intuitive and simple as some internet folks claim it is. It’s like I’m spending days just to figure out whether Prometheus can produce what our existing monitoring solutions currently do (e.g. Zabbix)

    Great videos, but can you please blink from time to time?! 😉

    • @PromLabs
      @PromLabs  3 місяці тому

      I can't, I've been taken hostage 🤣 But seriously, this should be much better in the more recent videos, where I was using a remote control to pause/resume the teleprompter. Much less stressful and I was able to breathe in between sentences :)
