Azure Monitor managed service for Prometheus for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes is a fully managed Prometheus compatible service from Azure Monitor that delivers the best of what you like about the open-source ecosystem while automating complex tasks such as scaling, high-availability, and 18 months of data retention.
With general availability today, Azure Monitor managed service for Prometheus for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes allows customers to monitor their Kubernetes clusters running anywhere. It offers fully managed collection, storage, rule evaluation, and querying of Prometheus data. The metrics time-series database leverages the same platform used by Azure Monitor Metrics, which we extended to handle Prometheus metrics in their native format. When coupled with Azure Managed Grafana it supports a cloud-native approach to monitoring your Kubernetes environment and is an integral component for observing your containerized workloads.
Additionally, customers can now customize scraping targets using Custom Resources (pod monitors and service monitors), similar to the OSS Prometheus Operator for greater flexibility and control.
