Prometheus

#What Antimetal does with Prometheus

• Run PromQL queries to pinpoint when a metric changed and by how much
• Compare series across services to find what moved together
• Read alerting and recording rules to understand what your team monitors
• Establish the blast radius of a regression from the metrics alone

#Connecting Prometheus

Prometheus is connected through Grafana. Follow the Grafana setup and Antimetal picks up Prometheus automatically as one of its data sources.

Prerequisites

• Prometheus configured as a data source in Grafana Cloud or a self-hosted Grafana instance

1. Connect Grafana

   Follow the Grafana setup for whichever deployment you run. Antimetal queries the data sources wired into Grafana, so no Prometheus-specific credential is needed.

2. Make a self-hosted instance reachable

   If Prometheus and Grafana run inside your own network, review the self-hosted requirements — Antimetal needs an HTTPS endpoint and a read-only token to query it.

#Permissions and access

Antimetal reads Prometheus through Grafana using the same read-only credential. It issues queries only — no writes or ingestion.

All tenant data is processed in isolated environments. See security and compliance for details.
