Adding Prometheus to the Compose network

We have set Prometheus up so that it is running successfully and also managed to monitor the Task Manager application. Since we added Prometheus to all of our applications, we should add it to the Compose file and parse the services.

Since Prometheus is interacting with the existing services, this is not an operation that should place from an external network. We should add a network that Prometheus will be able to operate. We will name it monitoring-network:

networks:
  location-network:
  redis-network:
  monitoring-network:

• task-manager
• location-service
• events-service

scrape_configs: 
  - job_name: 'task-manager' 
    scrape_interval: 1m...
