Prometheus & Grafana Setup for MicroAI Application Performance Monitoring

Table of Contents

1. Download and Install Prometheus Server

  1. Visit the official Prometheus download page: https://prometheus.io/download/ and download the package for your operating system.

For Linux:

wget https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/releases/download/v3.5.0/prometheus-3.5.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xvf prometheus-3.5.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

2. Setup Prometheus Server

All MicroAI APM Agents export Prometheus metrics on port 9100.

  1. Open the prometheus.yml configuration file.
  2. Add a new job under the scrape_configs section with the agent IPs as targets.

Example:

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: "MicroAI-APM"
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:9100", "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:9100"]

  1. Save and close the configuration file.

  2. Ensure the Prometheus binary has execute permissions:

chmod +x prometheus
  1. Start Prometheus:
./prometheus

3. Verify Prometheus and Agent Connectivity

  1. Access the Prometheus web interface (default port 9090):
http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:9090/
  1. Navigate to Status → Targets.
  2. Verify that the MicroAI Security and Monitoring agent appears as UP.
