Superset is gaining popularity among users especially Business/Product Owners and people who would like to create Business Intelligence graphs. Unfortunately it does not support Prometheus protocol at the moment of writing, therefore can not be used for DevOps’ish or Telemetry BI. This can be resolved with a very popular in Data Scientists circles data aggregation framework— Trino. It allows us to gather and transform data from different sources. Let’s see how it can help us extract data from VM and pass it into Superset for plotting and visualisation.

We have used Grafana and Prometheus for our operational insights, which collects performance metrics for us to see how our systems are performing.
