# `prometheus`

The `prometheus` components collect, process, and forward Prometheus-compatible metrics. They support multiple collection methods:

- HTTP scraping
- Remote-write ingestion
- Built-in exporters

You can relabel, enrich, and route metrics before writing them to storage.

Use `prometheus` components when you want to collect metrics from your applications and infrastructure, and send them to Prometheus, Grafana Mimir, or another compatible endpoint for analysis.
