there are so many tools and interfaces for similar things: prometheus, elastic search(ES), new relic, splunk .... I think the world is converging on 2 stacks: ES and prometheus. ES is hard to operate but can handle everything: metrics, tracing, logs. Prometheus promises to be easy to use and has good metrics and alerting. In our work, we chose ES. I don't think so far ease of use is possible and team has to get hands dirty for any good solution.
