When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?

When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

There are 3 modules in this course

By the end of this course, learners will be able to install and configure Prometheus, integrate exporters for system and cloud metrics, deploy Alertmanager for reliable notifications, and design powerful Grafana dashboards. They will also apply PromQL operators and functions to query time-series data and monitor applications and short-lived jobs using Pushgateway and Apache exporter.

This course is designed to provide a complete, hands-on learning journey, starting from foundational setup to advanced monitoring and visualization. Unlike generic tutorials, it offers a structured progression: learners first build a Prometheus environment, then extend it with cloud integrations, alerts, and security, and finally master advanced querying and visualization techniques. With a focus on real-world projects, learners gain practical skills in monitoring infrastructure, analyzing system performance, and implementing proactive alerting pipelines. Whether aiming to strengthen DevOps expertise, improve cloud monitoring, or enhance observability practices, this course delivers the practical knowledge needed to monitor, alert, and visualize with Prometheus effectively.

Module details

This module introduces learners to the fundamentals of Prometheus monitoring by guiding them through environment setup, installation, and core tools. Learners will configure Prometheus, integrate Grafana, and begin working with exporters to collect system metrics. By the end of this module, learners will have a fully functional Prometheus lab environment.
