Adding Prometheus to a FastAPI app | Python

Great introduction to using Prometheus with FastAPI! It opens up a world of possibilities for monitoring that goes beyond just FastAPI. However, that power comes at the price of complexity!

For anyone looking for a simpler and easier way to monitor their FastAPI app, one that doesn't involve deploying & configuring complex monitoring systems, check out Apitally.

Apitally provides insights into API traffic, errors, response times and payload sizes, for the whole API, each endpoint and individual API consumers. It also monitors API uptime & availability, alerting users when their API is down.

To set it up, users just need to install a small dependency in their FastAPI project and add two lines of code.
