PromCon EU: Meet the New Kid in the Sandbox - Integrating Visualization with Prometheus

I'm going to be speaking at the one and only PromCon EU 2024 on 11-12 September in Berlin, Germany. This is a single track event with a set size of 300 attendees dedicated to the Prometheus monitoring system.

As they state on the website, "PromCon aims to connect Prometheus users and developers from around the world in order to exchange knowledge, best practices, and experience gained around using Prometheus. We also want to collaborate to build a community and grow professional connections around systems and service monitoring."

I've been attending this event for the last two years since my career took me in the direction of cloud native observability, with Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) projects like Prometheus being the natural direction I gravitated towards. Since working with Prometheus, I've also gotten involved with a new project called Perses, which is focused on providing true open source visualization and dashboards to the users of Prometheus.

Let's look at the talk I'm going to give to introduce you to this new kid on the block, Perses.

Projects in the observability space tend to gravitate to the CNCF, and Perses jumped into the process of becoming a CNCF Sandbox project. While this evaluation process has a bit of a backlog and we are waiting on the results, it's high time you met this new kid on the block!

I'll be sharing what Perses is, how to get started with it, and what it has to do with Prometheus as follows.

Meet the New Kid in the Sandbox - Integrating Visualization with Prometheus

When you jump in the CNCF Sandbox you will soon (may be approved by the time you see this) meet the new kid, a visualization and dashboards project called Perses. This session will provide attendees with the basics to get started with integrating Prometheus, PromQL, and more with Perses. A journey will be taken from zero to beautiful visualizations seamlessly integrated with Prometheus. This session leaves the attendees with hands-on self-paced workshop content to head home and dive right in to creating their first visualizations and integrations with Prometheus and Perses!

Date: Thursday, 12 Sep 2024

Time: 13:45 - 14:15

Location: Tempodrom Berlin, Möckernstraße 10, 10963 Berlin, Germany

Looking forward to sharing this session with all the attendees, so hurry and register before there are no more tickets available!
