Prometheus is a very popular open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit originally built in 2012. Its main focus is to provide valid insight into system performance by providing a way for certain variables of that system to be monitored. Prometheus displays the performance of these variables as a graph to allow its users to see their system’s performance at a glance.

Data centres are going through a transformation. Gradually, we will see a new type of equipment attached to servers in almost every data centre: smartNICs are here. They will be the enablers of converged data centres where common infrastructure tasks are offloaded from a host server to attached network interface cards (NIC).

Today’s modern applications are made up of thousands of loosely connected private and publicly exposed APIs, each serving a specific function. This dynamic API landscape, in combination with the decentralized nature of microservice development, can be overwhelmingly challenging to manage—let alone govern or secure adequately. API sprawl is often created as a result, leading to fragmented or nonexistent internal API documentation, knowledge bases, and toolsets.

As your applications grow, your teams may be faced with managing a complex, expanding mesh of potentially thousands of loosely connected APIs—each one a new point of failure that can be difficult to track and patch. API sprawl comes naturally in rapidly expanding, distributed applications, and the difficulty of maintaining centralized knowledge and toolsets for your APIs creates friction when teams need to leverage APIs they don’t own.
