# Prometheus

Prometheus is an open-source monitoring system and time series database. It models time series with a dimensional data model, queried with the PromQL language. Prometheus servers operate independently and rely only on local storage, and alerting rules are based on PromQL with the separate Alertmanager component handling notifications and silencing.
