Cardinal: Prometheus and Loki cardinality explorer
Cardinal shows which jobs, metrics and labels make up your active Prometheus series, and which services and
labels create your Loki log streams and volume. Pick what to drop, check where it is used, and export the result.
- Series by job, metric and label, with churn and histogram bucket analysis
- Log streams, labels, volume and repeated line patterns
- Rules for Prometheus relabel configs, Grafana Alloy, Promtail and Grafana Adaptive Metrics and Logs
- An MCP endpoint so an AI agent can analyse your data and propose rules
Cardinal runs in your browser and needs JavaScript. The source is on GitHub.
