What

Adds a new FAQ entry to the OpenMetrics migration guide answering: "What new metrics are available in OpenMetrics that are not available in PromQL?"

  • Plain-language summary of the new observability areas OpenMetrics unlocks (activity execution/latency, task queue health, namespace utilization/rate limits, usage against limits, higher-dimensional labels)
  • A simple list of the new metrics (temporal_cloud_v1_*) available on OpenMetrics but not PromQL
  • A simple list of the new labels available on OpenMetrics
  • A link to the OpenMetrics metrics reference for full details

Why

Customers migrating from PromQL frequently ask what they gain by moving. This makes the upside concrete and discoverable in the migration guide itself.

Notes

  • Carried-over metrics (e.g. workflow completion counts, service/replication latency, schedule metrics) are intentionally excluded; the list focuses only on what is net-new.
  • Names validated against docs/cloud/metrics/openmetrics/metrics-reference.mdx.
