See [these docs]([#prometheus-setup](https://snapcraft.io/victoriametrics#prometheus-setup)) for details. + Supports Prometheus querying API, so it can be used as Prometheus drop-in replacement in Grafana. VictoriaMetrics implements MetricsQL, query language, which is inspired by PromQL. + Supports global query view. Multiple Prometheus instances may write data into VictoriaMetrics. Later this data may be used in a single query. + High performance and good scalability for both inserts and selects. + High data compression, so up to 70x more data points may be crammed into limited storage comparing to TimescaleDB. + Optimized for storage with high-latency IO and low IOPS (HDD and network storage in AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, etc). + A single-node VictoriaMetrics may substitute moderately sized clusters built with competing solutions such as Thanos, M3DB, Cortex, InfluxDB or TimescaleDB. + Easy operation: - VictoriaMetrics consists of a single without external dependencies. - All the configuration is done via explicit command-line flags with reasonable defaults. - All the data is stored in a single directory pointed by `-storageDataPath` flag. - Easy and fast backups from to S3 or GCS with [vmbackup] / [vmrestore]. + Storage is protected from corruption on unclean shutdown (i.e. OOM, hardware reset or `kill -9`) thanks to the storage architecture. + Supports metrics' scraping, ingestion and backfilling via the following protocols: - [Metrics from Prometheus exporters] such as node\_exporter. * Prometheus remote write API( * InfluxDB line protocol over HTTP, TCP and UDP. * Graphite plaintext protocol if `-graphiteListenAddr` is set. * OpenTSDB put message, if `-opentsdbListenAddr` is set. * HTTP OpenTSDB /api/put requests, if `-opentsdbHTTPListenAddr` is set. * JSON line format. * Native binary format. * Prometheus exposition format. * Arbitrary CSV data. + Supports metrics' relabeling. See [these docs]([#relabeling](https://snapcraft.io/victoriametrics#relabeling)) for details. + Ideally works with big amounts of time series data from Kubernetes, IoT sensors, connected cars, industrial telemetry, financial data and various Enterprise workloads. + Has open source cluster version (). + Configuration management + Prometheus scrape config can be edited with your favorite editor, its located at `vi /var/snap/victoriametrics/current/etc/victoriametrics-scrape-config.yaml` after changes, you can trigger config reread with `curl localhost:8248/-/reload`. + Configuration tuning is possible with editing extra\_flags: `echo 'FLAGS="-selfScrapeInterval=10s -search.logSlowQueryDuration=20s"' > /var/snap/victoriametrics/current/extra_flags snap restart victoriametrics` + Data folder located at `/var/snap/victoriametrics/current/var/lib/victoriametrics/`. --- ## Install victoriametrics on your Linux distribution Choose your Linux distribution to get detailed installation instructions.
