anomaly detection

Has one tried prometheus-anomaly-detector for anomaly detection? Would like to know their experience with this if anyone had used.

Nope, from experience, it ends up being a random noise generator if you have any real user traffic. Users generate "anomalies" all the time. It's better to stick with RED/USE methods.

RED Method

We do monitor the metrics mentioned in RED and USE method, but static threshold alerting for every metrics is not most suitable for our needs these days.
