Jonathan Baier

Jonathan Baier is an emerging technology leader living in Brooklyn, New York. He has had a passion for technology since an early age. When he was 14 years old, he was so interested in the family computer (an IBM PCjr) that he pored over the several hundred pages of BASIC and DOS manuals. Then, he taught himself to code a very poorly-written version of Tic-Tac-Toe. During his teenage years, he started a computer support business. Throughout his life, he has dabbled in entrepreneurship. He currently works as Senior Vice President of Cloud Engineering and Operations for Moody's corporation in New York.

  6. Good reasons to use Prometheus are as follows:
    • Simple to operate: It was built to run as individual servers using local storage for reliability.
    • It's precise: You can use a query language similar to JQL, DDL, DCL, or SQL queries to define alerts and provide a multi-dimensional view of status.
    • Lots of libraries: You can use more than ten languages and numerous client libraries in order to introspect your services and software.
    • Efficient: With data stored in an efficient, custom format both in memory and on disk, you can scale out easily with sharding and federation, creating a strong platform from which to issue powerful queries that can construct powerful data models and ad hoc tables, graphs, and alerts.
