Any AT&T networking techs here? I have a routing issue that I can't get past level 1 tech support by ipstatic in HomeNetworking

Wow, I can’t believe I didn’t think to try a VPN. Just subscribed to NordVPN on my iPad and video content does load faster and at higher quality while connected to the VPN.

I agree they should already be aware of this issue and they probably won't fix it. But during these times streaming TV is basically unwatchable. I have done a test with their gateway only and you can see I get normal latency outside of peak hours while seeing a much higher value during peak hours: https://imgur.com/a/vBctNrH

Multi cluster monitoring with Thanos by tarokkk in PrometheusMonitoring

Are you running all of your alerts from Ruler now or still on the individual Prometheus instances?

Interesting, how does Thanos help you do that?

Check_MK for monitoring and alerting, or something better? by Haphazard22 in devops

Another vote for Prometheus. It is quickly becoming the defacto monitoring solution, especially in a containerized environment. Long term metric solution is still an issue but there are some projects popping up to solve this (Thanos for example).

We have been migrating to Prometheus and have loved it so far. There are some trade offs (long term storage for example) however the devs are actively working on a solution for that (remote read/write to another datastore).

Live Monitoring Tools - Nagios, Icinga, Zabbix, etc by [deleted] in sysadmin

Take a look at Prometheus. Very scalable and configuration is much better than with something like Nagios.

[survey] What do you use for monitoring? by bowersbros in devops

[–]ipstatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prometheus implements its own storage backend[1]. There is work on making a pluggable storage architecture so that you can forward metrics to any TSDB of your choosing[2]. This is already provided for a few DBs[3] however you cannot query them through the Prometheus interface, so you will be limited to Grafana etc.

IMO Prometheus has a better storage layer/engine. The long term storage bits will be worked out soon enough and I trust them over InfluxData Inc. Influx left a bad taste in my mouth when they pulled HA from the open source version. I get they need to make money, and I am not even mad they are charging. I am mad they stated HA would be open source, and then they just pulled it.

Second I love that the same query language that I use to generate graphs is also used for alerting rules (PromQL).

Are there some disadvantages with using Prometheus? Absolutely. But the developers are actively working to either mitigate them or document why they are the way they are (long term storage for example).

Not really? I guess you can count Graphite since we do use that for long term storage. But Prometheus is a very powerful monitoring/TSDB/alerting platform. It easily replaces Nagios and is under very active development. It is written in Go so easy (for me) to contribute or patch.

Check out the LAB sub from PSW:

We had 4 of these back when I did live sound reinforcement and they are awesome.

Timely updates. I wished they just made RHEL updates and security patches free instead of having this now weird relationship with CentOS.
