Reading Prometheus Instance Data Through Remote Read

Prerequisite

• Your service has been connected for Prometheus monitoring. For details, see:
  • Prometheus Instance for Cloud Services
  • Prometheus Instance for ECS
  • Prometheus Instance for CCE
  • Common Prometheus Instance
  • Prometheus Instance for Multi-Account Aggregation

Remote Read Configuration

You are advised to set a prometheus.yml file. The following shows the procedure:

1. Log in to the AOM 2.0 console.
2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Prometheus Monitoring > Instances. In the instance list, click the target Prometheus instance.
3. On the instance details page, choose Settings in the navigation pane to obtain the service address of the current instance.

   Click the Intranet or Public Network tab to obtain the configuration code for Prometheus remote read in the intranet or public network. Click on the right of the code to copy the code to the corresponding file.

   Remote read configuration:

   remote_read:
     - url: 'https://aom.{region_name}.{Site domain name suffix}/v1/{project_id}/{prometheus_instance_id}/api/v1/read'
       tls_config:
         insecure_skip_verify: true
        bearer_token: '8H**LP'
        read_recent: true
