Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit.
Overview
Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit. Its main features are:
- a multi-dimensional data model with time series data identified by metric name and key/value pairs
- PromQL, a flexible query language to leverage this dimensionality
- no reliance on distributed storage; single server nodes are autonomous
- time series collection happens via a pull model over HTTP
- pushing time series is supported via an intermediary gateway
- targets are discovered via service discovery or static configuration
- multiple modes of graphing and dashboarding support
Highlights
- Open-source monitoring and alerting

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance type you run this Prometheus monitoring software on. Pricing scales with the instance you choose, not with fixed plans or tiers. Options span compute-optimized (C-family), general-purpose (M-family), memory-optimized (R and X families), storage-optimized (D and I families), and GPU or accelerated families (G, P, F, DL). Within each family, larger sizes carry higher hourly rates because they provide more CPU, memory, or storage. You are billed only for the hours each instance runs. Select the family and size that fit your monitoring workload.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The hourly rate covers the Prometheus software running on the EC2 instance type you select. The software ships as an AMI you launch and access over SSH. It runs on port 9090 by default. Standard AWS infrastructure charges for compute, storage, and data transfer are separate and billed by AWS.
Software charges apply per running instance-hour. A stopped instance stops accruing the hourly software charge. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for the attached volume, but the software meters running time only. Restart the instance to resume monitoring and charging.
One unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you choose, billed per hour. Each instance you launch meters separately. If you run several instances at once, each accrues its own hourly charge at the rate for its instance type and size.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
