Asked By TechieDude42 On

Hey everyone! I'm currently working as a network developer at a growing ISP and have set up robust monitoring with Prometheus. I've created custom exporters for a variety of network devices and tools, pulling metrics from around 15 different sources. While I've got dashboards and alerts in place, along with some Slack bots that can fetch metrics, I'm curious about what else people have done with their metrics. Has anyone explored more advanced or creative uses for Prometheus data? I'm looking for some fresh ideas. Thanks in advance!

You might want to look into KEDA (Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling). It can help take your metrics and scale your applications automatically based on demand, which is super useful as you grow.

Another idea is to use your metrics for auto remediation and SLO tracking. There's a ton of potential to explore beyond just alerts and dashboards!

Have you considered diving into anomaly detection or AIOps? There are some cool projects out there that leverage AI for identifying unusual patterns in your data. It’s a game changer for early detection of issues.

Definitely check out tools like VictoriaMetrics that offer anomaly detection capabilities. With all the data you’re capturing, you can develop systems that automatically identify and respond to abnormal behavior, like spotting potential security threats.
