从 Windows 上的 Grafana 访问 GCP Managed Prometheus 指标

Question

I have installed Grafana (running at localhost:3000) and Prometheus (running at localhost:9090) on Windows 10, and am able to add the latter as a valid data source to the former. However, I want to create Grafana dashboards for data from Google's Managed Prometheus service. How do I add Google's Managed Prometheus as a data source in Grafana, running on Windows 10? Is there a way to accomplish this purely with native Windows binaries, without using Linux binaries via Docker?

Answer 1

I've not done this (myself yet).

I'm also using Google's (very good) Managed Service for Prometheus.

It's reasonably well-documented Managed Prometheus: Grafana

There's an important caveat under Authenticating Google APIs : "Google Cloud APIs all require authentication using OAuth2; however, Grafana doesn't support OAuth2 authentication for Prometheus data sources. To use Grafana with Managed Service for Prometheus, you must use the Prometheus UI as an authentication proxy.

Step #1: use the Prometheus UI

The Prometheus UI is deployed to a GKE cluster and so, if you want to use it remotely, you have a couple of options:

1. Hacky: port-forward
2. Better: expose it as a service

Step #2: Hacky

NAMESPACE="..." # Where you deployed Prometheus UI

kubectl port-forward deployment/frontend \
--namespace=${NAMESPACE} \
${PORT}:9090

Step #3: From the host where you're running the port-forward, you should now be able to configure Grafana to use the Prometheus UI datasource on http://localhost:${PORT} . localhost because it's port-forwarding to your (local)host and ${PORT} because that's the port it's using.

Answer 2

Now we can connect gcp prometheus directly from grafana using service account. Feature available from version 9.1.X

I have tested gmp with standalone Grafana on GKE it is working well as expected.
