VAST Data prometheusmetrics API

prometheusmetrics is VAST's Prometheus exporter resource. Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit that provides a data model for describing and recording metrics over time and also provides a web application to display those metrics. Prometheus can be configured to fetch metrics from a third party system (such as in this case VAST Cluster) by means of a software entity called a Prometheus exporter. A Prometheus exporter collects metrics from a third party system, converts them to Prometheus metrics and exposes them via a resource path. The VAST prometheus exporter can fetch pre-defined metrics from the VMS database and return the data as a plain/text key-value format response. You can configure the Prometheus server to scrape the metrics from the exporter at a chosen interval and display the VMS metrics through its display applications.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of VAST Data prometheusmetrics API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
