Awesome news! Prometheus does fill a void in the monitoring, time series, visualization niche. I found it more straightforward to setup and use than the alternatives such as statsd, collectived, influxdb (which seems to be headed the wrong way in monetizing) and grafana et al.

I always thought that Hashicorp would someday fill this void with their polished products and straightforward community and monetization strategies, especially through consul [0]. I hope it can polish the rough edges while being incubated by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.

PS.: I've prepared an Ansible role for prometheus for those interested, albeit outdated [1]
