Investigate: A database that stores metrics

Problem to solve

In order to build an observable solution, we would need to find a long term store for Metrics, since Prometheus does not built for a long term metric store currently, we are using Elasticsearch to store logs

Intended users

Further details

Today we have Prometheus which is not suitable for long term storage of metrics. We likely to introduce Elasticsearch to store logs. We need to find a single database for long term storage for metrics.

Metrics requirements:

  • Ability to integrate with Prometheus (in order to store and query the data from).
  • Retention policy for 1y minimum.
  • Rollups support
  • Open source projects.
