+# Prometheus & Grafana Monitoring Lab Report
+
+## Architecture
+
+Application write his data to global variables (prometheus-client package) and exposes '/metrics' endpoint which returns current values.
+
+Prometheus "asks" for metrics each known application by some interval (just GET request). And save to database.
+
+Grafana just makes requests to Prometheus and visualize data.
+
+Application <--- Prometheus <--- Grafana
+
+## Application Instrumentation
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Purpose |
+| -- | -- | -- | - |
+| `http_requests_total` | Counter | method, endpoint, status | Track API usage and error rates |
+| `http_request_duration_seconds` | Histogram | method, endpoint | Monitor latency and performance |
+| `http_requests_in_progress` | Gauge | none | Detect concurrency issues |
+| `app_uptime_seconds` | Gauge | none | Detect unexpected restarts |
+| `endpoint_response_size_bytes` | Histogram | endpoint | Monitor payload sizes and bandwidth |
+
+## Prometheus Configuration
+
+### prometheus.yml
+
+```yaml
+global:
+  scrape_interval: 15s
+  evaluation_interval: 15s
+
+storage:
+  tsdb:
+    retention_time: 15d
+    retention_size: 10GB
+

+
+## Dashboard Walkthrough
+
+# Grafana Dashboard Visualizations Explained
+
+![alt text](image-6.png)
+
+## 1. Request Rate (Graph)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+sum(rate(http_requests_total[5m])) by (endpoint)
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+A line graph displaying requests per second for each endpoint over time. Each endpoint gets its own colored line.
+
+## 2. Error Rate (Graph)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+sum(rate(http_requests_total{status=~"5.."}[5m]))
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+How many 5xx errors (server errors) are occurring per second. This is a critical health indicator.
+
+## 3. Request Duration p95 (Graph)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+histogram_quantile(0.95, rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket[5m]))
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+**The 95th percentile latency**: 95% of requests complete within this time; 5% are slower.
+
+## 4. Request Duration Heatmap (Heatmap)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket[5m])
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+**A 2D visualization showing the distribution of request latencies over time**.
+## 5. Active Requests (Gauge/Graph)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+http_requests_in_progress
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+**Real-time count of requests currently being processed by the application**.
+
+## 6. Status Code Distribution (Pie Chart)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+sum by (status) (rate(http_requests_total[5m]))
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+**Breakdown of request outcomes: successful (2xx), client errors (4xx), and server errors (5xx)**.
+
+## 7. Uptime (Stat)
+
+### Query
+
+```promql
+up{job="app"}
+```
+
+### What It Shows
+
+**Whether the service is currently up (1) or down (0)**.
+
+## PromQL Examples
+
+### Query 1: Total Requests by Status Code
+
+```promql
+sum by (status) (http_requests_total)
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Groups all requests by HTTP status code (200, 404, 500, etc.) and sums them. Shows distribution of successful vs. failed requests.
+
+**Use Case**: Quick overview of application health.
+
+### Query 2: Request Rate by Endpoint
+
+```promql
+sum by (endpoint) (rate(http_requests_total[5m]))
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Calculates the rate of requests per endpoint over the last 5 minutes. Shows which endpoints are most heavily used.
+
+**Use Case**: Identify traffic hotspots and optimize accordingly.
+
+### Query 3: Average Latency Over Time
+
+```promql
+avg(rate(http_request_duration_seconds_sum[5m]) / rate(http_request_duration_seconds_count[5m]))
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Divides the sum of durations by the count of requests to get average latency. Smoothed over 5 minutes.
+
+**Use Case**: Track performance trends and detect degradation.
+
+### Query 4: High Error Rate Alert
+
+```promql
+(sum(rate(http_requests_total{status=~"5.."}[1m])) / sum(rate(http_requests_total[1m]))) > 0.05
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Fires when error rate exceeds 5% over 1 minute. Detects sudden application failures.
+
+**Use Case**: Trigger alerts to on-call engineers.
+
+### Query 5: Requests Taking Longer Than 2 Seconds
+
+```promql
+histogram_quantile(0.99, rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket[5m])) > 2
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Shows when the 99th percentile latency exceeds 2 seconds. Indicates significant performance issues.
+
+**Use Case**: SLA monitoring and performance budgets.
+
+### Query 6: Application Restart Detection
+
+```promql
+increase(app_uptime_seconds[5m]) < 0
+```
+
+**Explanation**: Detects when uptime decreases (restart), which would show as negative increase.
+
+**Use Case**: Alert on unexpected restarts.
+
+## Production Setup
+
+### Health Checks
+
+## Prometheus health check
+
+Every 10 seconds with timout of 5 seconds. Maximum 5 retries.
+
+## App health check
+
+Every 10 seconds with timout of 5 seconds. Maximum 5 retries.
+
+### Resource Requirements
+
+Prometheus: 1G memory, 1 CPU
+Loki: 1G memory, 1 CPU
+Grafana: 512M memory, 0.5 CPU
+Apps: 256M memory, 0.5 CPU
+
+### Prometheus retention
+
+time: 15 days
+size: 10Gb
