Résumé:
The use of containers has been widely adopted in the technology industry due to their flexibility and
scalability. However, container monitoring is a crucial task to ensure system availability and
performance. Therefore, there is a wide variety of monitoring tools available for various use cases
and scopes. In this study, two of these tools, Prometheus and NetData, will be compared, both being
pointed out by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as two of the projects with the most
contributors in 2022 [4].
The evaluation criteria will be five: real-time monitoring, baseline performance indicator, network
performance monitoring, data visualization, and alerting. In the end, it was concluded that NetData
has a slight advantage over Prometheus because it is more limited in aspects such as network
performance monitoring and data visualization.
