关于Actuator：
对Spring Boot监控能力有过了解的小伙伴都应该知道Spring Boot Actuator这个子项目，它为应用提供了强大的监控能力。从Spring Boot 2.x开始，Actuator将底层改为Micrometer，提供了更强、更灵活的监控能力。Micrometer是一个监控门面，可以类比成监控界的 Slf4j 。借助Micrometer，应用能够对接各种监控系统，例如本文所要介绍的：Prometheus
关于Prometheus ：
Prometheus是一个由SoundCloud开发的开源系统监控+告警+时序列数据库(TSDB)，Prometheus大部分组件使用Go语言编写，是Google BorgMon监控系统的开源版本。目前在CNCF基金会托管，并已成功孵化。在开源社区Prometheus目前也是相当活跃，在性能上Prometheus也足够支撑上万台规模的集群。
Prometheus的功能：
- 用度量名和键值对识别时间序列数据的多维数据模型
- 拥有灵活的查询语言：PromQL
- 不依赖分布式存储，单个服务器节点是自治的
- 通过基于HTTP的pull方式采集时序数据
- 可以通过中间网关进行时序列数据的推送
- 支持通过服务发现或者静态配置来发现目标服务对象
- 支持多种多样的图表和界面展示，比如Grafana等

关于Grafana：
Grafana 是一款采用 GO 语言编写的开源应用，支持跨平台度量分析和可视化 + 告警。可以通过将采集的数据查询然后可视化地展示，并及时通知。Grafana 支持多种数据源和展示方式，总而言之是一款强大酷炫的监控指标可视化工具。

本文的主要目的是实现微服务的监控，简单了解了上述工具的概念后，我们就来动手实践一下。首先创建一个简单的Spring Boot项目，其主要依赖如下：
org.springframework.boot
spring-boot-starter-web
org.springframework.boot
spring-boot-starter-actuator
io.micrometer
micrometer-registry-prometheus
Influx ，则将依赖改为 micrometer-registry-influx 即可。编辑项目配置：
server:
port: 9562
spring:
application:
# 指定应用名
name: prometheus-demo
management:
endpoints:
web:
exposure:
# 将 Actuator 的 /actuator/prometheus 端点暴露出来
include: 'prometheus'
metrics:
tags:
# 为指标设置一个Tag，这里设置为应用名，Tag是Prometheus提供的一种能力，从而实现更加灵活的筛选
application: ${spring.application.name}完成以上步骤后，进行一个简单的测试，看看端点是否能正常返回监控数据。启动项目，访问/actuator/prometheus端点。正常情况下会返回如下内容：

jvm_memory_used_bytes{application="prometheus-demo",area="heap",id="PS Survivor Space",} 0.0表示：prometheus-demo 应用堆内存中的 PS Survivor Space 区域占用的空间是 0.0 个字节。
接下来就是需要在服务器上安装Prometheus服务，用于从微服务暴露的监控端点中采集监控数据。为了简单起见，我这里采用docker的安装方式，其他安装方式可以参考 官方安装文档。
首先为Prometheus准备一个配置文件：
[root@localhost ~]# mkdir /etc/prometheus
[root@localhost ~]# vim /etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
scrape_configs:
# 任意写，建议英文，不要包含特殊字符
- job_name: 'spring'
# 多久采集一次数据
scrape_interval: 15s
# 采集时的超时时间
scrape_timeout: 10s
# 采集的端点
metrics_path: '/actuator/prometheus'
# 被采集的服务地址，即微服务的ip及端口
static_configs:
- targets: ['192.168.1.252:9562']该配置文件的目的是让Prometheus服务自动每隔15秒请求 http://192.168.1.252:9562/actuator/prometheus 。更多配置项参考：Prometheus Configuration官方文档
最后通过docker启动Prometheus服务，命令如下：
[root@localhost ~]# docker run -d -p 9090:9090 -v /etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml prom/prometheus --config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml启动成功后，正常情况下访问http://{ip}:9090，就可以看到Prometheus的首页：
点击 Insert metric at cursor ，即可选择监控指标；点击 Graph ，即可让指标以图表方式展示；点击Execute 按钮，即可看到类似下图的结果：
功能说明：

同样需要在服务器上安装Grafana服务，为了简单起见，我这里依旧采用docker的安装方式。其他安装方式可以参考 官方安装文档。
使用docker只需要一行命令就可以启动Grafana，如下：
[root@localhost ~]# docker run -d -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafanaGrafana启动成功后，访问http://{ip}:3000/login进行登录，默认账户密码均为admin：
登录成功后，首页如下：
首先需要添加监控数据的来源，点击首页中的Add data source ，即可看到类似如下的界面：
这里点击Prometheus，即可看到类似如下界面，在这里配置Prometheus服务相关的信息：
保存成功后会有如下提示：
点击导航栏上的 + 按钮，并点击Dashboard，将会看到类似如下的界面：
点击 Add Query ，即可看到类似如下的界面：
在红框标记的位置添加指标查询，指标的取值详见Spring Boot应用的 /actuator/prometheus 端点，例如jvm_memory_used_bytes 、jvm_threads_states_threads 、jvm_threads_live_threads 等。
Grafana会给你较好的提示，并且支持较为复杂的计算，例如聚合、求和、平均等。如果想要绘制多个线条，可点击Add Query 按钮。如上图所示，笔者为图表绘制了两条线，分别代表daemon以及peak线程。
点击下图的按钮，并填入Title，即可设置图表标题：
若需要为Dashboard添加新的图表则点击上图中的左上角按钮：
并按下图步骤操作即可：
如果需要保存该Dashboard，则点击右上角的保存按钮即可：
至此，我们已经成功将Grafana与Prometheus集成，实现了较为丰富的图表展示——将关心的监控指标放置到Dashboard上，并且非常灵活！然而，这个配置的操作虽然不难，但还是挺费时间的。
那么是否有配置好的又强大、又通用、拿来即用的Dashboard呢？答案是肯定的！前往 Grafana Lab - Dashboards ，输入关键词即可搜索指定Dashboard：
如上图所示，可以找到若干款以 Prometheus 作为数据源，支持Micrometer的Dashboard。下面，简单演示一下如何使用 JVM(Micrometer) 这个Dashboard。点击 JVM(Micrometer) 进入Dashboard详情介绍页，如下图所示：
如图已详细描述了该Dashboard的特性、配置。其中的management.metrics.tags.application ，前面安装Prometheus服务时已经配置过了。该页的右上角用红框标注的 4701 是一个非常重要的数字，因为这是该Dashboard的id。
回到Grafana的首页，我们来导入这个Dashboard，按下图步骤操作：
输入后即可看到类似如下的界面，选择数据源，并点击Import：
此时，即可看到类似如下的界面，我们常关心的指标该Dashboard均已支持：
在上方的选项栏中可以选择查看不同的服务/应用：
此外，还有一些比较好用的Dashboard，可以自行了解一下这里就不赘述了：
