Introduction:

In today’s digital landscape, monitoring infrastructure and applications is essential for maintaining performance and availability. Prometheus and Grafana, coupled with alerting capabilities, offer a robust solution for real-time monitoring and visualization. In this guide, we’ll demonstrate how to set up Prometheus, Grafana, alerting, and an Apache web server using Docker Compose. Through a real-world example, we’ll monitor the web server’s performance and establish alerts for critical metrics.

Prerequisites:

1. Docker installed on your system.
2. Basic understanding of Docker Compose.
3. Access to a terminal or command prompt.
