Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Smart-Cash project -Adding monitoring to EKS using Prometheus operator
The project repository for Prometheus-operator can be found here, The repo defines the CRDs and the controller. You can follow this documentation for the installation. which will require the creation of metrics exporters, node exporters, scrape configurations, etc.

Ask HN: Best solution for homelab service monitoring?
Personally I use kubernetes, k3s is kind of lightweight, with the Prometheus operator.
https://k3s.io/
https://prometheus-operator.dev/
Kubernetes is not for everyone and is far from perfect but you already use Docker and you seem to seek many features offered by Kubernetes.

Opinions on using the Prometheus Operator vs. installing yourself?
I see that the operator is a community-run project. Does anybody have any experience (positive or negative) on running the operator itself? I wonder if it is more for multi-tenant Prometheus. For single tenant Prometheus collection, I guess the big gain is abstracting scrape config into ServiceMonitor and PodMonitor resources? Is there anything else that this makes much better?

Prometheus node exporter and cadvisor to send metrics to central prometheus cluster
But in all honesty if you’re on k8s you’re probably best served by the Prometheus operator. It’ll give you all that and more, easily.

How do I stop my apps from being killed in k8s?
At a minimum, you want to look at your metrics using the Prometheus Operator. You can write alerts for resource requests.

Spring Boot monitoring with Prometheus Operator
Prometheus Operator is an independent project from the Prometheus project. I know, it can lead to confusion. In the official README you can find short comparison. Basically, Prometheus Operator does what an operator should do - provides Kubernetes native deployment and management of Prometheus and related monitoring components like Grafana or Alert Manager.

OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated
VictoriaMetrics CTO here.
The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].
Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.
VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

Top 11 Grafana Alternatives in 2023
VictoriaMetrics is primarily a time-series database designed for efficiently storing and querying time-series data. It is often used as a back-end data store for time-series data generated by monitoring systems like Prometheus. VictoriaMetrics excels at handling large volumes of time-series data, offering efficient storage and query capabilities.

μMon: Stupid simple monitoring
Did you try VictoriaMetrics [1] and vmagent [2]? It is a single self-contained binary without external dependencies. It requires relatively low amounts of CPU, RAM, disk space and disk IO, and it runs on ARM.

If I understanding correctly, it deal with high cardinality by dropping data, the operators need to monitor for this and adjust their data to lower the cardinality.

OpenTelemetry in 2023
You shouldn't unless you want to use the new open source standard for telemetry. You won't benefit from simplicity or performance improvements. It would be quite the opposite. You can check what is the actual cost of open telemetry adoption here [0]
But if you ever decide to go this path - VictoriaMetrics supports OpenTelemetry protocol for metrics [1]
