+# Prometheus Graduation Application
+
+Prometheus was the second accepted project into the CNCF (joined in May 2016) and has grown significantly over time. In August 2017 we have successfully hosted a community conference (PromCon) in collaboration with the CNCF that attracted 200+ attendees from the developer and user community.
+
+The following application links to the required information to become a graduated project.
+
+## Prometheus fulfills all the incubating and graduation criteria:
+
+### Document that it is being used successfully in production by at least three independent end users which, in the TOC’s judgement, are of adequate quality and scope.
+
+* "Users" section of https://prometheus.io/
+* In-progress PR to add an `ADOPTERS.md` file: https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/3833/files
+
+### Have a healthy number of committers. A committer is defined as someone with the commit bit; i.e., someone who can accept contributions to some or all of the project.
+
+See the current list of [Prometheus team members](https://github.com/prometheus/docs/blob/master/content/governance.md#team-members), who are also committers.
+
+### Demonstrate a substantial ongoing flow of commits and merged contributions.
+
+* https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/graphs/contributors
+
+In all official Prometheus repositories, we have had 850+ unique contributors with a total of 12k+ commits so far.
+
+### Have committers from at least two organizations.
+
+We have [17 committers](https://github.com/prometheus/docs/blob/master/content/governance.md#team-members) from ~10 organizations:

+### Have achieved and maintained a Core Infrastructure Initiative Best Practices Badge.
+
+https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/projects/486
+
+### Adopt the CNCF Code of Conduct.
+
+https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md
+
+### Explicitly define a project governance and committer process. This preferably is laid out in a GOVERNANCE.md file and references an OWNERS.md file showing the current and emeritus committers.
+
+* https://prometheus.io/governance/
+
+### Have a public list of project adopters for at least the primary repo (e.g., ADOPTERS.md or logos on the project website).
+
+See the bottom of https://prometheus.io/. We aim to additionally curate a more extensive list in an `ADOPTERS.md` file in the future. See https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/3833/files.
