Hello, I’m new here and recently stood up prometheus cluster, alert manager, blackbox proxy, and thanos with AWS S3 as it’s object store.
There are some scenarios, and I think there will be more coming, where I cannot install an exporter but the endpoint does provide an API. ESXI servers, other virtual appliances, etc. How does everyone else solve those problems?
Do you write services or scripts that push metrics to a push gateway? If so, do you just run all those services on one server? Do designate a server and write exporters on different ports and add them as targets? Just curious how everyone else solves those problems?
