Imagine we’re going to bake cookies, and there are two types of uncertainties we might face: epistemic and aleatory. 1. Epistemic Uncertainty (Lack of Knowledge) Epistemic uncertainty is like not knowing what kind of cookies people will like. Imagine we don’t know if people will prefer chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin cookies. This uncertainty is because we don’t have enough information about people’s preferences.

In today’s fast-changing world of computer systems, making sure system work well and don’t break down is really important. That’s where Prometheus comes in. It’s a free toolkit that helps keep an eye on things and warns engineers when something might be going wrong in the collection of information that computer systems create. What is Prometheus? You might have seen the movie Prometheus! but I am here to talk about open source monitoring system Prometheus, which comes in when there was a need for a robust monitoring solution for cloud-native environments, It is an open-source project set by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).
