- momothereal 5y agoTo be precise it was the other way around. OpenMetrics is a standardization effort for the format Prometheus made up. However Prometheus was designed before JSON was standardized itself, so I'm just glad they didn't choose XML!
- lokar 5y agoAnd the Prometheus format is a copy of the "varz" format
