Prometheus – What it is, What is New, and What is Coming
summary
Prometheus is a pull-based TSDB handling 64-bit numeric samples and a single instance can ingest 2.5 million samples/sec (benchmarks show >60k in real clusters and one install had 125 million active time series with long‑term storage). New features: five extra service discovery backends, TLS/basic auth for exporting, a Go exporter toolkit, PromQL additions like last_over_time and @ modifier, remote_write receivers, and exemplars with trace IDs for linking metrics to traces.
