Follow below steps to get started with MinIO monitoring using Prometheus.

### 1. Download Prometheus

[Download the latest release](https://prometheus.io/download) of Prometheus for your platform, then extract it

```sh
tar xvfz prometheus-*.tar.gz
cd prometheus-*
```

ECDS NAME                                                     TYPE

## Monitoring MinIO in Kubernetes

MinIO server exposes un-authenticated liveness endpoints so Kubernetes can natively identify unhealthy MinIO containers. MinIO also exposes Prometheus compatible data on a different endpoint to enable Prometheus users to natively monitor their MinIO deployments.

# How to configure Prometheus AlertManager

Alerting with prometheus is two step process. First we setup alerts in Prometheus server and then we need to send alerts to the AlertManager.

. {
  etcd churchofminio.com {
      endpoint http://localhost:2379 http://localhost:4001
      upstream /etc/resolv.conf
  }
  debug
  prometheus
  cache 160 mydomain.com
  loadbalance
  forward . /etc/resolv.conf

            backend                    *                       /healthz/ready*        

  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: hello
      tier: backend
      track: stable
  strategy: {}
  template:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        prometheus.io/path: /stats/prometheus
        prometheus.io/port: "15020"
        prometheus.io/scrape: "true"
        proxy.istio.io/config: '{ "holdApplicationUntilProxyStarts": true }'

To use this endpoint, setup Prometheus to scrape data from this endpoint. Read more on how to configure and use Prometheus to monitor MinIO server in [How to monitor MinIO server with Prometheus](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/metrics/prometheus/README.md).
