List of dashboards

Allows you to view the dashboards and core metrics of different Prometheus instances.

-

Service discovery

Provides default service discovery, ServiceMonitor, PodMonitor, and custom service discovery. By using default service discovery, custom service discovery, ServiceMonitor, and PodMonitor, you can optimize the monitoring scope of your ACK cluster, ensure that the required metric data is collected, and efficiently monitor and analyze different services and pods.

Global configurations

Global aggregation instance

Provides a global aggregation instance in each region to aggregate all Prometheus instances in the region. Global aggregation instances support unified metric query and alerting.

Alert management

Prometheus alert rule

Allows you to create alert rules for a Prometheus instance. When the specified condition in an alert rule is met, an alert event is generated. If you want to receive alert notifications, you can configure a notification policy. Alerts are generated based on the notification policy, and alert notifications can be sent by text message, email, phone call, DingTalk chatbot, WeCom chatbot, or webhook.

Prometheus alert rule template

Allows you to create the same alert rule for Prometheus instances in different regions.

Data delivery

Data delivery task

Allows you to remotely write data from one Prometheus instance to another Prometheus instance, and transfer data among various cloud service, such as Kafka and MaxCompute.
