Naming the subsystems of the Agent prometheus, loki, and tempo was well-intentioned but mostly confusing. We should rename them as following:

  • Change prometheus to metrics
  • Change loki to logs
  • Change tempo to traces

For backwards compatibility, both names should be supported in the config file, but the old names should be marked as deprecated so we can remove them in a future release.

This change should also be made in the Grafana Agent Operator, with the same backwards compatibility (ie support both PrometheusInstance and MetricsInstance).
