Docs about external visualisation tool for Prometheus

Open Nexucis opened this issue 5 months ago • 3 comments

Hello,

Grafana is the only external tool listed to be able to display data and query Prometheus.

This is not the case anymore and I was wondering if we should do:

  • a single page listing every external tool.
  • a page per tool
  • not mentioning at all any external tool.

Regarding the external tool, I have in mind: Perses, Thanos, PromLens

I think Perses and PromLens deserve their own sub pages under docs/visualization. Perhaps if there additional smaller tools, we could add an "Other tools" page. There are lots of small tools like command line / TUI tools for PromQL.

I think Thanos is already appropriately listed under docs/operating/integrations.

I agree with @SuperQ (although maybe putting PromLens under "Other" makes sense for the time being, since I haven't fully kept up with all the latest PromQL features in it).

Looks like this has been resolved by #2673 . Should we go ahead and close this issue?
