Deprecate falco-exporter

Open leogr opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Repository: https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco-exporter

Motivation

Starting from version 0.38, Falco itself can expose Prometheus metrics as an incubating feature. This eliminates the need for a separate exporter to handle metrics exposure.

The proposal is to initiate the deprecation process for falco-exporter now, with the intent to fully archive the repository once the Prometheus metrics feature in Falco is promoted to stable (this may realistically happen around Falco 0.40).

This ensures a streamlined approach to metrics handling and avoids maintaining redundant tools.
