+## Prometheus Metrics
+The server exposes Prometheus metrics at the `/metrics` endpoint on a dedicated port (default `:9090`).
+- **HTTP Mode**: Metrics server runs on port `9090` (configurable via `-metrics-port`).
+- **gRPC Mode**: Metrics server runs on port `9090` (configurable via `-metrics-port`).
+
+Key metrics include:
+- `http_request_duration_seconds`: Histogram of response latency.
+- `http_requests_total`: Counter of HTTP requests by status, method, and path.
+- Standard Go and Process metrics.
+
+A `/health` endpoint is available on the main application port (default `:8080`) for readiness probes.

 ## OTEL based observability
 The OS level env variable `ENABLE_OTEL_TRACING=="true"/"false"` (string type) is used to enable/disable this service (with Tracing only).
+You can also configure the service name using `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` env variable (defaults to "FeastGoFeatureServer").
 
 The default exporter URL is "http://localhost:4318". The default schema of sending data to collector is **HTTP**. Please refer the following two docs about the configuration of the OTEL exporter:
