Hello everyone,
I have currently have an eks cluster running on AWS. I installed helm
chart to setup prometheus and grafana. All metrics I need for
EKS(deployments, services, pods etc.) are totally fine. So I wanted to
centrally use that grafana for other AWS services that I use and
that's why I configured config.yml for lambda metrics as given at the
repository and deployed cloudwatch exporter
(https://github.com/prometheus/cloudwatch_exporter/). I can see the
related metrics at the Grafana dashboard. When I hit the explore tab
at left menu from Grafana UI and enter lambda, all metrics given at
the config.yml for lambda metrics are totally fine. I can query them.
And now I wanted to use a dashboard for lambda
-> https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/593-aws-lambda/
However it uses cloudwatch as datasource not prometheus and that's why
I can't see no data for that specific dashboard. What's best way to
overcome this. Is it something quickly editable and fixable ? or is it
better to start creating dashboard from beginning. If someone. can
help me here, I would appreciate that.
If you use dashboards from the Grafana site that aren't designed for
Prometheus their usefulness is limited. Other datasources (such as
Cloudwatch or Datadog) use totally different query languages, so what
you are really gaining is an outline of a design rather than anything
you can directly use. You would need to rewrite all the queries to
operate in a similar manner using PromQL.
Whenever I'm having a look for Grafana dashboards I use the datasource
filter such that only those designed specifically for Prometheus are
listed - at least then they mostly work out of the box (although often
still need slight tweaks due to different job names or use of labels).
