Important notes

• The post is to be merged on the 22nd at 15:00 UTC and as soon as GitLab.com is up and running on the new release version, and all packages are publicly available. Not before.
• The usual release time is 15:00 UTC but it varies according to the deployment. If something comes up and delays the release, the release post will be delayed with the release.
• Coordinate the timing with the release managers. Ask them to keep you in the loop.
• After merging, wait a few minutes to see if no one spot an error (usually posted in #general), then share on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn, or make sure someone (Emily vH, JJ, Marcia) does.
• Keep an eye on Slack and in the blog post comments for a few hours to make sure no one found anything that should be fixed

+        Omnibus GitLab comes out of the box with Prometheus, allowing [easy observability of deployed instances](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/monitoring/prometheus/).
+        The Prometheus team has released a major new version, the 2.x series,  which offers a 
+        [number of improvements](https://prometheus.io/blog/2017/11/08/announcing-prometheus-2-0/).
+        These include improved performance and a more efficient time-series database format. Unfortunately
+        because of the architectural changes to the database, it is not backwards compatible with the old 1.x format.
+
+        With GitLab 11.4, Prometheus 2.4.2 is now available in the Omnibus package so users can take advantage its benefits.
+        * New installations of 11.4 and above will start with Prometheus 2.
+        * Existing installations will not be automatically upgraded. We have added a new command, `gitlab-ctl prometheus-upgrade`, which can 
+        be utilized to [upgrade Prometheus and optionally migrate data](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/gitlab_11_changes.html#11-4). Prometheus will be stopped during data migration.
+        * Users will need to move to Prometheus 2.0, before being able to [upgrade to GitLab 12.0](#deprecations).
+
+        For more information on upgrading Prometheus to 2.4.2, please review our [update documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/gitlab_11_changes.html#11-4).
