With the old #Grafana Agent, I could go to <agent:9090>/integrations/<integration>/metrics and get the metrics this integration gathered.

With #Alloy this doesn't work anymore and I always get the JS-based Alloy webUI (besides at <alloy:12345>/metrics, but that are just the metrics of Alloy itself).

Where am I holding it wrong?!

Edith says: It's now at <alloy:12345>/api/v0/component/prometheus.exporter.blackbox.mybox/metrics

There must be an specific role aimed to come Up with cool product names like #loki #alloy or #grafana right?

Nutzt jemand #Grafana #Alloy mit #WindowsServer? Wenn ja, ein Tipp wie ich die EventID mit übertrage? Irgendwie will der bei mir nicht.

So, I've been using Thanos to receive and store my prometheus metrics long term in a self hosted S3 bucket. Thanos also acts as a datasource for my dashboards in Grafana, and provides a Ruler, which evaluates alerting rules against my metrics and forwards them to my alertmanager. It's ok. It's certainly got it's downsides, which I can go into later, but I've thinking... what about Mimir?

How do you all feel about Grafana's Mimir (source on GitHub)? It's AGPL and seems to literally be a replacement of Thanos, which is Apache 2.0.

Thanos description from their website:

Open source, highly available Prometheus setup with long term storage capabilities.

Mimir description from their website:

...open source software project that provides horizontally scalable, highly available, multi-tenant, long-term storage for Prometheus and OpenTelemetry metrics.
Both with work with alloy and prometheus alike. Both require you to configure initially confusing hashrings and replication parameters. Both have a bunch of large companies adopting them, so... now I feel conflicted. Should I try mimir? Poll in reply.

Finally managed to install Grafana on RHEL 9.5 and Window 11, yay! For the time being, think free tier will do. Anyone has experience with this? Looking forward to hearing your experiences and ideas. #grafana #Prometheus #GrafanaLoki2 #alloy

#Promtail is expected to reach EOL on March 2, 2026

Das neue Tool #Grafana #Alloy soll ja so viel besser sein - das mag sein, es gibt sogar einen Converter von der Promtail Config in die Alloy Config... Nur die Alloy Config ist nicht mehr 1:1 kompatibel mit der #Loki #Docker Logging-Driver Config -.-

Ganz großes Dankeschön.
Nicht. -.-

software modeling tools #alloy are now in #macOS homebrew as `alloy` have fun, #infosec!

3D-printed alloy conserves nickel while maintaining stainless steel strength

Alloy from @grafana embeds several Prometheus Exporters.

However when checking the metrics from the local component API, only a few metrics show up. I expected metrics of all processes running on this #Linux server.

By adding the "matcher" option in the #Alloy configuration, filters (from the official #Prometheus Process Exporter) can be applied - and metrics of all processes are collected, when using a wildcard.

Alloy Steel Cladding
This steel carapace is either black, gleaming chrome or some sort of metallic metal, such as green, red or blue. While the android encased in this two centimeter thick, articulating armored shell might have the splendid physique of a fit man or woman, there is no mistaking it for a living human despite the appearance score of the android. Other armor, and some special features that might conceal this plating, can be worn with this protective layer.

CPU Within Android’s Head
The CPU (Central Processing Unit) of an android is its hard-wired, computerized brain and occupies the skull cavity of the head. Other than a jury-rigged CPU variety, listed in the table below, the computerized brain housed in this android is fixed and can’t be switched in and out without deleting the consciousness, however, by gaining ranks, trait improvements can a occur.

Polycarbonate Sheath Skin
While still flexible like skin, this covering is hard to mistake as anything natural, and while it hugs the contours of the body shape within, and seems to pronounce any gender identifying physical attributes, the skin itself is not warm, exhibits little subtleness or responsiveness despite any amatory capabilities the android might have. This skin is usually of some unnatural color, and like ballistic mesh, is exhibits a grid or diamond shaped pattern which sometimes reflects light almost like fish scales.

Besides node_exporter there are many other #Prometheus exporters available, all with their own listening port.

And then there's Grafana's #Alloy. #Grafana Alloy has an ambitious goal: Be an one-in-all OTLP-compatible observability daemon.

Alloy bundles multiple Prometheus exporters into one binary. Bundled means easier to collect summarized metrics, right?

Wrong. Scraping and reading local #metrics can be done, but only if you know the very specific API URL!
