Übersicht

VictoriaMetrics is a fast, cost-effective and scalable monitoring solution and time series database. TLDR: It is a faster, more lightweight replacement to InfluxDB/TimescaleDB/etc (up to 20x faster data digestion, up to 7-10x less ram usage). Can be used in place of InfluxDB in many apps such as HomeAssistant. Includes a great web UI for query exploration. For HomeAssistant: drop in replacement for InfluxDB, see https://community.home-assistant.io/t/influxdb-vs-victoriametrics/453361 Git repository: https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics Dockerhub: https://hub.docker.com/r/victoriametrics/victoria-metrics Website: https://victoriametrics.com VictoriaMetrics prominent features: - Long-term storage for Prometheus. - Drop-in replacement for Prometheus and Graphite in Grafana. - Easy setup and operation with a single executable and configuration via command-line flags. - Fast backups with vmbackup/vmrestore tools. - Implements MetricsQL query language. - Global query view for multiple data sources. - High performance and scalability, outperforming InfluxDB and TimescaleDB by up to 20x. - Efficient RAM usage, 10x less than InfluxDB and up to 7x less than others. - Optimized for high-churn time series data. - High data compression, storing up to 70x more data points in limited storage. - Ideal for high-latency IO and low IOPS storage. - Can substitute moderately sized clusters of competing solutions. - Protects data from corruption on unclean shutdown. - Supports various metrics protocols, including Prometheus, InfluxDB, Graphite, OpenTSDB, and more. - Offers stream aggregation, metrics relabeling, and series limiting. - Suitable for diverse data sources like APM, Kubernetes, IoT, financial data, and more. - Open source cluster version. - Compatible with NFS-based storages like Amazon EFS and Google Filestore.
