Open Metrics & Why it matters

The OpenMetrics format intends to standardize metric exposition, making it easy for both those developing and operating systems to monitor them. While it is based on the Prometheus format, it is however a new format.

Will it be supported by your monitoring system? Will you need to rewrite your existing instrumentation? What's needed to transition? What about 3rd party systems you don't control? How does this differ and expand, and improve on the existing Prometheus format? Do you have to use Prometheus? Why does it matter?
