What is Prometheus and what are these Exporters?

Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit that is a monitoring go-to tool and a standard for many companies across the globe. 
Prometheus Exporter apps provide endpoints to expose Atlassian applications metrics to Prometheus.

Here are just a few examples of what you can do with Prometheus Exporters:

• Monitor application health – CPU usage, memory usage, user and issue statistics, and so on.
• Create personalized notifications – Diagnose anomalies in real-time and act quick without affecting production.
• Get it all on one dashboard – Convert metrics into charts and get a central monitoring location.

Why is it good?

What can be better than something free? Something that's free and working! 

How do Prometheus Exporters work?

Prometheus Exporter apps provide endpoints to expose Atlassian applications metrics to Prometheus. Then you set up any number of dashboards in Prometheus for the monitoring that you need. For the hassle free experience reach out to us at anovaproducts@appfire.com and we can configure it for you!

I am on Jira Data Center, will these work for me?

Prometheus exporters might work for applications in Data Center, however, they were not tested and certified to be compatible yet. Therefore we cannot (yet) guarantee reliable performance.

I don't want to configure these. Can you do that for me?

Yes! We do provide configuration services on the Prometheus monitoring setup for your Atlassian applications. Reach out to us at anovaproducts@appfire.com and we will configure it for you!
