Your question is not easy to answer because you are using "cumulative", which doesn't exist as a term in the Prometheus ecosystem. Perhaps it maps to what Prometheus calls a counter? I recommend to have a look at the explanation of Prometheus metric types: https://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/metric_types/#metric-types Those types are exposed by the /metrics endpoint, so you can look at them there. They are ingested by the Prometheus server only in a limited way, which is not straightforward to use, but Grafana, as an example, is doing that for you, so you can inspect the type if exploring Prometheus metrics from within Grafana. -- Björn Rabenstein [PGP-ID] 0x851C3DA17D748D03 [email] [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
