Thanks @leogr for opening this dedicated issues.

Perhaps we need multiple dashboards.

• One dashboard could be tailored to replace https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco-exporter
• Another one could be focused on performance overhead tracking, we could use it for [Tracking] Falco Prometheus Support for Falco Metrics cncf-green-review-testing#12
• ... more specialized dashboards given that we have a lot of metrics users can tap into

[incertum]

@leogr another question re the rules counters. We sanitize the rules name to conform with the Open Metric standard. should we maybe add the original rules name (all original characters) as label as well so it can be displayed more nicely in the dashboard?

Hey, are there any available Grafana dashboards for the new exposed metrics? or any any PrometheusRule CRDs for Alerts on the new metrics?

[Issif]

@paltaa we're still working on the dashboard. The metrics feature is not stable yet, and the upcoming 0.39.0 will introduce breaking changes.

Here's an overview of the WIP: https://issif.grafana.net/dashboard/snapshot/esulWY0cuRhb31SlqFDUHw3KJDHS4bq7?from=2024-09-13T19:53:02.224Z&to=2024-09-18T19:07:10.632Z&timezone=browser&var-datasource=grafanacloud-prom&var-source=k8s_audit&var-source=syscall&var-priority=$__all&var-rule=$__all&refresh=

Hey @Issif, thanks for the quick response, could you share the JSON for that dashboard?
