A Prometheus exporter written in Go that reads /proc to expose metrics about selected processes on Linux systems. It groups processes by configurable name matching and reports resource usage such as CPU and memory per group.
Use cases
- monitor processes that can't be instrumented directly with Prometheus
- track CPU and memory usage of specific daemons via /proc
- export process metrics to Prometheus for alerting
- group subprocess resource usage under a parent process name
- monitor thread-level metrics for selected applications
When to choose
- you need Prometheus metrics for third-party or uninstrumentable applications
- you run Linux and want lightweight per-process monitoring
- you want to group and aggregate metrics across related processes
When to avoid
- you are not using Prometheus or a Prometheus-compatible scraper
- you need monitoring on non-Linux platforms without /proc
- you can instrument your application directly with a native client library
