In part 1 of this series, we discussed the rise of Kubernetes and Docker for containerization and container orchestration. I also shared some of the challenges these new technologies present and what sources of data we use to monitor Kubernetes. Part 2 dives into collecting Kubernetes data with Prometheus, plus the pros and cons of that approach. As promised in the conclusion of that post, I’ll address those cons — showing how Sensu and Prometheus form a complementary solution.

In part 2, I discussed Prometheus’ strengths, especially when it comes to monitoring Kubernetes, as well as where it falls short in terms of its data model. The good news is we’ve made it easy to use Sensu and Prometheus together, so you can get a complete picture for monitoring your entire infrastructure. Here are just a few advantages to using Sensu to power up your Prometheus monitoring:
