Recomended EC2 instance type for running latest Prometheus

[Vivek Lanjekar]

i was thinking of Running Prometheus server in i3en.xlarge as it has local storage and will get better IO performance than ebs. Please can any one share their opinion on this or may be suggest better EC2 instance type for running Prometheus in Production environment. Thanks in advance

Prometheus doesn't typically require high performance storage. HDD or EBS work just fine.

Sizing your instance depends on how much you're monitoring.
