Developer's Note: Research on Distributed Tracing, Comparing With Tempo and ClickHouse

When it comes to observability, people often refer to its three pillars: metrics, tracing, and logging. At VictoriaMetrics, we already have solutions for metrics and logging. Throughout these years, we’ve heard a common question from the community: When will VictoriaTraces be released? If you are interested in this topic, then this blog post is for you. We’ll share the results of our research into distributed tracing and explore two key questions: Will there be a VictoriaTraces? And how competitive could it be?

OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and More: Which Is Better for Metrics Collection and Propagation?

OpenTelemetry, Prometheus 2.x, Prometheus 3.x, and vmagent are put together for comparison in scraping and pushing data to remote storage.

How to reduce expenses on monitoring: be smarter about data

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.

Comparing Performance and Resource Usage: Grafana Agent vs. Prometheus Agent Mode vs. VictoriaMetrics vmagent

We compared the performance and resource usage of Grafana Agent, Prometheus Agent Mode, and VictoriaMetrics vmagent to help readers make informed decisions when choosing an agent for their monitoring needs.
