Too Long; Didn't Read
Alligator is a distributed unit of infrastructure. It can provide information about FreeBSD and Linux operating systems. It also supports metrics transmission to Clickhouse, InfluxDB, and Prometheus. The main interface of Alligator is OpenMetrics. It connects with spreading Prometheus as a monitoring system in many infrastructures. However, the Prometheus ecosystem has some problems. First of all - the specialized and simplified agents. Every service on the host needs a specialized exporter. This is the reason for having a lot of exporters per host (like a node_exporter, redis_exporter, sentinel_exporter, and so on).
