virtualcoffee.io VS prometheus

I've been learning how to code for the past five months and let me tell you, it really is a whirlwind of emotions! After an amazing mentorship that ended too soon, I realized something: I thrive when I learn with others. That's when I found Virtual Coffee, a tech community that uplifts and celebrates wins of all kinds! Just one virtual coffee in, Chris Nowicki, a generous full stack developer in the community, already dropped a goldmine with us--learning and building in public!

I joined an online developer community called Virtual Coffee last year and saw Klesta’s post about Web Dev Path on their Slack channel. I remember I read her interview to know better about it. I was familiar with building something on my own but I didn’t have much experience to develop within a team. Web Dev Path sounded like a good place to improve skills to work in a team.

Next month at Virtual Coffee, we're doing a monthly challenge for public speaking. What are your favorite tips or resources?

Since last September, I have had the opportunity to be an open source project maintainer. I help maintain some project repositories at Virtual Coffee, OpenSauced, and SheSharp communities. And now, I can see the view from a different perspective.

I'm part of some tech communities and love documentation. Together with the core team of the Virtual Coffee Community, I actively discuss ideas and contribute to creating and shaping the community documentation. From there, I was trusted to be the Documentation Team Lead.

Update monthly challenge page to Hacktoberfest — Virtual Coffee

Virtual Coffee: In this project, you add your name and a list of open source projects you recommend for Hacktoberfest. They provide specific steps to look out for in open source projects. It’s a great way to learn the traits of a healthy open source project. Since I’ve been contributing to open-source projects a bit before Preptember, I decided to list projects that have been helpful in my journey. (note: you have to join their group in order to contribute. Here’s a link: https://virtualcoffee.io/).

I will guide and answer open-source questions for anyone who needs one. And I'm volunteering in some tech communities — Virtual Coffee, OpenSauced and SheSharp — to be a mentor, a Hacktoberfest support, and a maintainer during the event.

Developers widely use Prometheus as a system for operational monitoring and alerting for their projects. Here is a list of tools for monitoring frontend services with Prometheus.

Just to give an example of the power of Go for CLI builds, you may have already used or at least heard of Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Terraform, but what do they all have in common? They all have a large part of their usability via CLI and are developed in Go 🐿.

Distributed system administrators need mechanisms and tools for monitoring individual nodes in order to analyze the system and promptly detect anomalies. Developers also need effective mechanisms for analyzing, diagnosing issues, and identifying bugs in protocol implementations. Logging, tracing, and collecting metrics are common observability techniques to allow monitoring and obtaining diagnostic information from the system; most of the explored code bases use these techniques. OpenTelemetry and Prometheus are popular open-source monitoring solutions, which are used in many of the explored code bases.

Setting up monitoring for a system, especially one involving GRPC communication, provides crucial visibility into its operations. In this guide, we walked through the steps to instrument both a GRPC server and client with Prometheus metrics, exposed those metrics via an HTTP endpoint, and visualized them using Grafana. The Docker-Compose setup simplified the deployment of both Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring a streamlined process.

Alerting and Notification: Select a tool with flexible alerting mechanisms to proactively detect anomalies or deviations from defined thresholds. Consider asking questions like "Does this tool offer customizable alerting options and support notification channels that suit our team's communication preferences?" A tool like Prometheus provides robust alerting capabilities.

Prometheus

Prometheus is an open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit. It is designed to monitor highly dynamic containerized systems, making it an excellent choice for monitoring Docker containers and Kubernetes clusters.
