Probably more accurately, Prometheus is now officially being incubated by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, which is a foundation for apps which are container-packaged, dynamically-managed, and microservices-oriented. Kubernetes is an engine to run cloud-native apps (itself conforming to the above spec). Prometheus is a platform for monitoring cloud-native apps, which also conforms to the spec. Having watched CNCF and kubernetes very closely, I would not be surprised at all to see it adopt the governance of multiple platforms for a given service (logging, for example).
