Create an Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace
A workspace is a logical space dedicated to the storage and querying of Prometheus metrics. A workspace supports fine-grained access control for authorizing its management such as update, list, describe, and delete, and the ingestion and querying of metrics. You can have one or more workspaces in each Region in your account.
To set up a workspace, follow these steps.
Note
For more detailed information about creating a workspace and the options available, see Create a Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace.
To create a Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace
-
Open the Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/
. -
For Workspace alias, enter an alias for the new workspace.
Workspace aliases are friendly names that help you identify your workspaces. They do not have to be unique. Two workspaces could have the same alias, but all workspaces will have unique workspace IDs, which are generated by Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus.
-
(Optional) To add tags to the namespace, choose Add new tag.
Then, for Key, enter a name for the tag. You can add an optional value for the tag in Value.
To add another tag, choose Add new tag again.
-
Choose Create workspace.
The workspace details page appears. This displays information including the status, ARN, workspace ID, and endpoint URLs for this workspace for both remote write and queries.
Initially, the status is probably CREATING. Wait until the status is ACTIVE before you move on to setting up your metric ingestion.
Make notes of the URLs displayed for Endpoint - remote write URL and Endpoint - query URL. You'll need them when you configure your Prometheus server to remote write metrics to this workspace and when you query those metrics.
