Meet the New Kid in the Sandbox – Integrating Visualization With Prometheus
summary
Perses is a CNCF Sandbox visualization project (started 2021) that plugs directly into Prometheus and PromQL, offers a JSON dashboard-as-code standard with CRUD API and validation for CI/CD, and runs as Kubernetes-native CRDs or a standalone container or built-from-source workshop. Live demo at demo.peres.dev accepts GitHub/Google login and a CLI for pushing dashboards. Tracing support exists but queries Tempo only (Tempo-only tracing). Thousands of dashboards are already automated by early adopters; current UI supports gauges, multi-gauges, tables and thresholds (labels for thresholds are a known limitation).
