Perceus: A New Metrics Visualization Tool
Perceus is a new metrics visualization tool that aims to provide a fresh approach to monitoring and visualization. It was created out of the need for a more powerful and flexible solution than existing tools like Grafana. The main goal of Perceus is to offer a simplified and intuitive way to visualize time series metrics, making it easy to create and manage dashboards. It currently supports panels for time series data, gauges, and markdown. While it is still in the early stages, Perceus aims to become a standard in the space and join the CNCF alongside Prometheus. Feedback and contributions from the community are highly encouraged to help improve and expand Perceus's capabilities.
