We believe microservices shouldn’t be the default and that companies should start with monoliths until reality actually demands they scale and shift from one node to a cluster of nodes. As a result, we offer clustering on an open source basis because we want to support realistic growth. Read on for details!
When evaluating, instant vectors provide current snapshots, while range vectors give you multiple values over a period of time. But how do they work?
Metrics come in different types: counters that only increase, gauges that fluctuate, histograms that show value distributions, and summaries that pre-calculate statistics.
OpenTelemetry, Prometheus 2.x, Prometheus 3.x, and vmagent are put together for comparison in scraping and pushing data to remote storage.
VictoriaMetrics agent, or vmagent, is a lightweight tool designed to gather metrics from a number of different sources. Once it pulls in all those metrics, vmagent lets you ‘design’ them (through ‘relabeling’) or filter them down (doing things like reducing cardinality, stream aggregation, deduplication, and so on) before shipping them off to wherever you want to store them.
Learn about the different types of managed monitoring services available on the market, and why you might consider picking one of them to manage your monitoring infrastructure.
This blog post is the second in the series of the blog posts based on the talk about ‘How to reduce expenses on monitoring’, stackconf 2023. It is about open-source instruments and techniques from the VictoriaMetrics ecosystem for improving cost-efficiency of monitoring.
We’re happy to share customer research today demonstrating that VictoriaMetrics is the world’s most cost-efficient monitoring solution! Read the post for details!

We’ll have to see what would be the cost of serving the same workload at Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, Google Cloud Managed Service for Prometheus and VictoriaMetrics Cloud.
