Listing 1 shows an example output of the Prometheus interceptor.
Setup Prometheus Monitoring
Setting up monitoring for Prometheus is easy. Have a look at the configuration in listing 2.
<serviceProxy name="Prometheus Monitoring" port="8080">
<path>/prometheus</path>
<prometheus/>
</serviceProxy>
With this configuration monitoring data is served on localhost:8080/prometheus. The interceptor chain will not continue beyond this interceptor as it returns the collected data directly.
