Prometheus supports sharding queries the way a screwdriver supports turning multiple screws at once. You can design a system yourself that includes the screwdriver, which will turn all the screws, but there's nothing inherent to the screwdriver that helps you with this. If "scalability" just means "you can use it to design something new from scratch that scales" then the term is pretty meaningless.
