| Practical Kubernetes Monitoring with Prometheus | Michael Friedrich | 24m |
Deploys a ready-to-run monitoring platform using kube-prometheus stack (Prometheus, Alertmanager, Grafana, node-exporter, kube-state-metrics, cAdvisor) and… | ||
| Auto-instrumentation of Prometheus for RED Monitorin... | Bartłomiej Płotka, Harshitha Chowdary Thota | 33m |
Claims that eBPF can auto-instrument RED metrics for Prometheus by hooking kernel events, using a Cloudflare eBPF exporter to read eBPF maps and expose… | ||
| Lightning Talk: Machine Learning Observability with Prometheus | Shivay Lamba | 05m |
Shows how to use Prometheus + Grafana to monitor ML models in production by scraping model endpoints and short‑lived jobs, storing samples, running rules to… | ||
| Lightning Talk: Who Are You? A Heuristic Approximation to Service Identification | David de Torres | 06m |

Builds a home plant monitor using Prometheus, a Raspberry Pi (tested on Raspberry Pi 4), Bluetooth soil sensors and a community flower exporter (Go); the… | ||
| Lightning Talk: Transactional Remote-write and Why You Should Care | Harkishen Singh | 05m |
Prometheus remote_write only guarantees ordering per series, causing non-atomic commits that break multi-series types like histograms and produce incomplete… | ||
| Lightning Talk: Monitor Your SOA Stack with Prometheus & Grafana | Michel Schildmeijer | 11m |
Shows how Oracle SOA Suite metrics (Service Bus, BPEL composites, dehydration store, error hospital) are exported via the WebLogic diagnostic framework plus… | ||
| Aggregating, Alerting and Graphing on Millions of Prometheus T... | Rob Skillington | 11m |
Shows that M3 aggregation already turns very high-cardinality counters into smaller derived metrics at ingest so alerts and dashboards stay fast, claiming it… | ||
| TSDB Data Compactions on Scale Without Headache: Now & Future | Ben Ye | 24m |
Explains how TSDB compaction merges index files and trunks (time-series chunks), handling horizontal (time) and vertical (overlap/backfill) merges, tombstone… | ||
| Deep Network Traffic Observability with Pktvisor and Prometheus | Shannon Weyrick | 24m |
Open source pktvisor is a C++ edge agent that captures packet and application-layer fields (DNS example) and uses streaming algorithms to produce top-k heavy… | ||
| Telemetry is Not Having to Hope | Owen Diel | 19m |
A personal story shows telemetry catching a real bug: clock drift causing partial login failure that logs and EC2 metrics missed, so the workflow moves from… | ||
| Streaming Recording Rules for Prometheus, Thanos, and Cortex Using... | Gibbs Cullen, Rob Skillington | 29m |
Shows how the M3 coordinator performs in-memory streaming aggregation so Prometheus/Cortex/Thanos avoid huge remote queries. A cAdvisor demo ingests metrics… | ||
| Ecosystem Tools to Select the Best Remote Storage Solution | Matvey Arye | 12m |
27 remote storage options exist and the ecosystem now supplies concrete tests: a PromQL compliance suite and remote_write compliance suite that compare query… | ||
