Анонс доклада Александра Валялкина

VictoriaMetrics: scaling to a billion metrics per second

Рост популярности систем мониторинга приводит ко всё большим требованиям производительности и надежности от баз данных для хранения временных рядов. VictoriaMetrics, решение для мониторинга и база для хранения временных рядов, была спроектирована с целью соответствовать растущим требованиям и закрывать те ниши, где другие решения уже не справляются.
В докладе будет в деталях рассказано о том, какие инженерные и архитектурные решения были приняты разработчиками для обеспечения наилучшей производительности и эффективности. Будет объяснён весь цикл "жизни" метрики, оптимизации при вставке, индексы для быстрого поиска, секреты быстрого чтения из диска и улучшения алгоритмов сжатия.
В ходе доклада будут произведены сравнения с альтернативными решениями, их плюсы и минусы, а также компромиссы, допущенные разработчиками. Если вы знакомы и используете такие системы как #prometheus, #thanos, #cortex, #influxdb, #tmescaledb или #graphite - доклад вам будет интересен.

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus

Prometheus is released under Apache-2. There are a lot of people and
companies that deploy Prometheus and even offer it as a service to their
customers, without collaboration whatsoever. And it is perfectly allowed
by the license. Every contribution upstream is therefore a success and a
bonus for our community and our users.

Prometheus strives to be an open project. Not only open as in open source,
but also open as in open and public discussions/roadmap. Everything I
note here is public, links are below.

Regarding AWS specifically:

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus is actually not Prometheus, but
cortex (1). They are Cortex maintainers (2) (Note that a major
difference between Cortex and Prometheus is that in Cortex, the
companies somehow take a role in decision making (3). In prometheus
governance, we are all individuals).
AWS & Grafana labs have designed and coded the SNS intregration for
Alertmanager (4).
AWS is also committed to provide native ECS discovery (5) and have
upstreamed an ECS exporter (6).
This is only the tip of the iceberg. AWS is also engaged with supporting
Prometheus in the OpenTelemetry ecosystem (7).
