" summary

Prometheus uses a pull-based /metrics endpoint that it scrapes at configured intervals to store numeric time series (example: overnight user spike causes CPU to hit 100% between 2–3 AM). Data is queried with PromQL queries for dashboards or to drive rules. Alerts go from Prometheus to Alertmanager to destinations like Slack or email. On Kubernetes, Robusta can install Prometheus or enrich alerts with pod logs and troubleshooting context.
