-[Prometheus](https://aka.ms/azureprometheus-promio) and [Grafana](https://aka.ms/azureprometheus-promio-grafana) are CNCF backed widely popular open source tools for kubernetes monitoring. AKS exposes many metrics in Prometheus format which makes Prometheus a popular choice for monitoring. [Container insights](../azure-monitor/containers/container-insights-overview.md) has native integration with AKS, collecting critical metrics and logs, alerting on identified issues, and providing visualization with workbooks. It also collects certain Prometheus metrics, and many native Azure Monitor insights are built-up on top of Prometheus metrics. Container insights complements and completes E2E monitoring of AKS including log collection which Prometheus as stand-alone tool doesn’t provide. Many customers use Prometheus integration and Azure Monitor together for E2E monitoring.
