SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Grafana Mimir provides horizontally scalable, multi-tenant, long-term storage for Prometheus metrics, simplifying high-volume metric retention and efficient query performance across clusters.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Horizontal scalability and high availability for Prometheus/OpenTelemetry metrics across tenants.
  • Deployment flexibility with monolithic and microservices/Kubernetes modes, plus remote_write integration.
  • Architecture components include Distributor, Ingester, Compactor, Querier, Query-Frontend, Store-Gateway, Ruler, and Alertmanager for end-to-end observability pipelines.
  • Use cases include long-term storage, multi-tenant dashboards, multi-cluster monitoring, and scalable metrics querying with PromQL.

Quick Start

Deploy a monolithic Mimir cluster using a sample configuration and verify metrics ingestion end-to-end.
