Hello everyone, As discussed during the 2026.1 PTG[1], it was decided to deprecate the prometheus datasource[2] during this cycle, in favor of the aetos datasource[3]. The aetos datasource provides the same functionality as the prometheus one, but with the advantage of multi-tenancy and Kestone-based authentication. Let us know if there are any objections. A patch to deprecate the prometheus datasource is proposed[4].
