Prometheus Grafana Setup

Setup Prometheus & Grafana

Workflow en 5 étapes

1. Choisir la stratégie de déploiement

# Option Kubernetes (tout-en-un : Prometheus + Grafana + AlertManager + exporters)
helm repo add prometheus-community https://prometheus-community.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update
helm install kube-prometheus prometheus-community/kube-prometheus-stack \
  --namespace monitoring --create-namespace \
  --set grafana.adminPassword=changeme \
  --set prometheus.prometheusSpec.retention=15d

# docker-compose.yml (dev)
services:
  prometheus:
    image: prom/prometheus:v2.52.0
    volumes:
      - ./prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
      - ./alerts:/etc/prometheus/alerts
    command:
      - --config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
      - --storage.tsdb.retention.time=15d
    ports: ["9090:9090"]

  grafana:
    image: grafana/grafana:11.0.0
    environment:
      GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD: changeme
      GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLE: publicDashboards
    volumes:
      - grafana-data:/var/lib/grafana
      - ./grafana/provisioning:/etc/grafana/provisioning
    ports: ["3000:3000"]

  alertmanager:
    image: prom/alertmanager:v0.27.0
    volumes:
      - ./alertmanager.yml:/etc/alertmanager/alertmanager.yml
    ports: ["9093:9093"]

volumes:
  grafana-data:

2. Instrumenter l'application

Types de métriques, quand utiliser quoi :

Préférer Histogram à Summary quand les métriques seront agrégées entre plusieurs instances.

// dotnet add package prometheus-net.AspNetCore
// Program.cs
app.UseHttpMetrics();
app.MapMetrics(); // expose /metrics

// Métriques custom
private static readonly Counter PaymentsTotal = Metrics
    .CreateCounter("payments_total", "Total paiements",
        new CounterConfiguration { LabelNames = ["status", "currency"] });

private static readonly Histogram PaymentDuration = Metrics
    .CreateHistogram("payment_duration_seconds", "Durée paiement",
        new HistogramConfiguration
        {
            // Buckets exponentiels : 10ms → ~10s
            Buckets = Histogram.ExponentialBuckets(0.01, 2, 10)
        });

// Utilisation
PaymentsTotal.WithLabels("success", "TND").Inc();
using (PaymentDuration.NewTimer()) { /* appel métier */ }

// Go, github.com/prometheus/client_golang
var requestDuration = promauto.NewHistogramVec(
    prometheus.HistogramOpts{
        Name:    "http_request_duration_seconds",
        Help:    "Durée des requêtes HTTP",
        Buckets: prometheus.DefBuckets,
    },
    []string{"method", "path", "status"},
)

3. Configurer le scraping Prometheus

# prometheus.yml
global:
  scrape_interval: 15s       # intervalle de collecte
  evaluation_interval: 15s   # évaluation des règles d'alerte

alerting:
  alertmanagers:
    - static_configs:
        - targets: ["alertmanager:9093"]

rule_files:
  - "alerts/*.yml"

scrape_configs:
  # Application custom
  - job_name: payment-api
    metrics_path: /metrics
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["payment-api:8080"]
    relabel_configs:
      - target_label: env
        replacement: production

  # Auto-découverte Kubernetes
  - job_name: kubernetes-pods
    kubernetes_sd_configs:
      - role: pod
    relabel_configs:
      - source_labels: [__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_scrape]
        action: keep
        regex: "true"
      - source_labels: [__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_port]
        action: replace
        target_label: __address__
        regex: (.+)
        replacement: $1

  # Exporter node (infra)
  - job_name: node-exporter
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["node-exporter:9100"]

4. Requêtes PromQL opérationnelles

# --- Taux d'erreur 5xx (%) sur 5 min ---
100 * sum(rate(http_requests_total{status=~"5.."}[5m]))
  / sum(rate(http_requests_total[5m]))

# --- Latence p99 par service ---
histogram_quantile(0.99,
  sum by (job, le) (rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket[5m]))
)

# --- Requêtes/s par endpoint ---
topk(10, sum by (path) (rate(http_requests_total[5m])))

# --- CPU (node-exporter) ---
100 - avg by (instance) (
  irate(node_cpu_seconds_total{mode="idle"}[5m])
) * 100

# --- RAM disponible (%) ---
100 * node_memory_MemAvailable_bytes / node_memory_MemTotal_bytes

# --- Pods en état non-Ready (Kubernetes) ---
kube_pod_status_ready{condition="false"} == 1

5. Alertes et Alertmanager

# alerts/slo-alerts.yml
groups:
  - name: slo
    rules:
      - alert: ErrorRateTooHigh
        expr: |
          (
            sum(rate(http_requests_total{status=~"5..",job="payment-api"}[5m]))
            / sum(rate(http_requests_total{job="payment-api"}[5m]))
          ) > 0.01
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: critical
          team: backend
        annotations:
          summary: "Taux d'erreur > 1% sur payment-api"
          description: "Erreur actuelle : {{ $value | humanizePercentage }}"
          runbook: "https://wiki.internal/runbooks/payment-api"

      - alert: LatencyP99High
        expr: |
          histogram_quantile(0.99,
            sum by (le) (rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket{job="payment-api"}[5m]))
          ) > 1.0
        for: 3m
        labels:
          severity: warning
        annotations:
          summary: "p99 latence > 1s"

# alertmanager.yml
route:
  group_by: [alertname, team]
  group_wait: 30s
  group_interval: 5m
  repeat_interval: 4h
  receiver: slack-critical
  routes:
    - match:
        severity: warning
      receiver: slack-warning

receivers:
  - name: slack-critical
    slack_configs:
      - api_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXX"
        channel: "#alerts-critical"
        title: "{{ .GroupLabels.alertname }}"
        text: "{{ range .Alerts }}{{ .Annotations.description }}{{ end }}"
  - name: slack-warning
    slack_configs:
      - api_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXX"
        channel: "#alerts-warning"

Dashboards Grafana, bonnes pratiques

4 Golden Signals (Google SRE) à couvrir systématiquement :

• Latence : p50 / p95 / p99 via histogram_quantile
• Trafic : req/s via rate(…[5m])
• Erreurs : taux 5xx / exceptions
• Saturation : CPU, RAM, connexions pool

Provisioning as-code (recommandé en prod) :

# grafana/provisioning/dashboards/default.yaml
apiVersion: 1
providers:
  - name: default
    type: file
    options:
      path: /etc/grafana/dashboards

Placer les fichiers JSON exportés dans /etc/grafana/dashboards/, rechargés sans restart.

Dashboards communautaires à importer (ID Grafana) :

• 1860, Node Exporter Full
• 315, Kubernetes cluster
• 13659, ASP.NET Core
• 11159, RabbitMQ

Garde-fous et anti-patterns

Validation rapide

# Vérifier la config Prometheus
docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml \
  prom/prometheus:v2.52.0 promtool check config /etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml

# Vérifier les règles d'alerte
promtool check rules alerts/*.yml

# Tester une règle PromQL
curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query' \
  --data-urlencode 'query=rate(http_requests_total[5m])' | jq .

# Voir les alertes actives
curl -s http://localhost:9093/api/v2/alerts | jq '[.[] | {name:.labels.alertname, state:.status.state}]'
