Description

Cortex is an innovative open-source solution that enhances horizontal scalability. While Prometheus is capable of handling up to 1 million samples per second on a single machine, Cortex enables a virtually limitless level of horizontal scaling. In an ever-evolving landscape, it is essential to adopt alternative strategies for monitoring individual virtual machines or servers. Prometheus features a service-discovery-driven, pull-based metrics system that caters to the dynamic characteristics of microservices. This capability allows for seamless monitoring of your entire ecosystem, regardless of the number of components involved. You can instrument your application to generate tailored metrics using the standard Prometheus client libraries, or you can leverage the vast array of Prometheus Exporters that gather data from existing software like MySQL, Redis, Java, ElasticSearch, and many others. By adopting these tools, organizations can ensure they maintain visibility and control over their complex infrastructures. This flexibility is particularly valuable in today's fast-paced, continuously changing technological environments.

Description

Heroic is an open-source monitoring solution initially developed at Spotify to tackle challenges related to the large-scale collection and near real-time analysis of metrics. It comprises a limited number of specialized components that each serve distinct purposes. The system offers indefinite data retention, contingent upon adequate hardware investment, alongside federation capabilities that enable multiple Heroic clusters to connect and present a unified interface. A key component, Consumers, is tasked with the consumption of metrics, illustrating the system's design for efficiency. During the development of Heroic, it became evident that managing hundreds of millions of time series without sufficient context poses significant challenges. Additionally, the federation support facilitates the handling of requests across various independent Heroic clusters, allowing them to serve clients via a single global interface. This feature not only streamlines operations but also minimizes geographical traffic, as it allows individual clusters to function independently within their designated zones. Such capabilities ensure that Heroic remains a robust choice for organizations needing effective monitoring solutions.
