-[Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/latest/userguide/what-is-Amazon-Managed-Service-Prometheus.html) provides a scalable, secure, AWS managed service for open-source Prometheus. You can use Prometheus query language (PromQL) to monitor the performance of containerized workloads without managing the underlying infrastructure for ingesting, storing, and querying operational metrics. You can collect Prometheus metrics from Amazon EKS and Amazon ECS by using [AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT)](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/latest/userguide/AMP-onboard-ingest-metrics-OpenTelemetry.html) or Prometheus servers as collection agents.

-  * If you don’t plan to use CloudWatch for monitoring and metrics capture, then you should use Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus with your Prometheus server and a visualization solution such as Grafana. You need to configure your Prometheus server to scrape metrics from your Prometheus targets and configure the server to [remote write to your Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/latest/userguide/AMP-onboard-ingest-metrics-existing-Prometheus.html). If you use Amazon Managed Grafana, then you can [directly integrate Amazon Managed Grafana with your Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus data source by using the included plugin](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/grafana/latest/userguide/prometheus-data-source.html). Because metric data is stored in Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, there is no dependency to deploy the CloudWatch agent or requirement to ingest data into CloudWatch. The CloudWatch agent is required for Container Insights monitoring for Prometheus.
