PromCon, the flagship yearly event of the Prometheus community, is back in Berlin, and we’re here to bring you the highlights from the Prometheus ecosystem. And this year we’ve got some major news: Prometheus’s long-awaited major release, v3.0!

Join us to hear all about the revamped user interface, about Remote Write 2.0, and about Prometheus’ goal to become the default backend for storing OpenTelemetry metrics, featuring native OTel support, and much more. We’ll cover these and more highlights from the Prometheus ecosystem.

Our guest is no other than Julius Volz, creator of Prometheus, and founder of the PromCon conference. Julius created the Prometheus monitoring at SoundCloud and led the project through open source and beyond. He now focuses on growing the Prometheus community, and helps companies use and adapt Prometheus through his company PromLabs. Before that, Julius was a Site Reliability Engineer at Google, where he gained experience monitoring at hyperscale.
