Prometheus is the standard for cloud-native monitoring, offering powerful querying (PromQL), reliable alerting, and seamless Kubernetes integration.

Can Prometheus scale?

Yes. With Thanos or Cortex, Prometheus scales horizontally for long-term storage, global querying, and multi-cluster monitoring.

Prometheus vs Datadog?

Prometheus is open-source and highly customizable. Datadog is managed with broader out-of-box integrations. Choice depends on budget and operational preference.
