# Prometheus Metrics This configuration file can be used to set up a Prometheus instance to read data from Nomad cluster, using Consul for service discovery. Requirements: - See Prometheus's [Getting Started](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/getting_started/) guide for instructions on how to set up a Prometheus server. - This configuration is written assuming there is a local Consul agent being run along side the Prometheus server. If this is not the case, the configuration will need to be updated to point at the remote Consul agent.
