I've heard of VictoriaMetrics before but haven't had time to play with it. InfluxDB is also now ingrained in a production system so replacing it is not straightforward. The query language is also different meaning everything that uses it will need to be updated too, and coming from a mainly SQL background, PromSQL/MetricsQL looks oddly weird.
- valyala 3y agoAgreed that PromQL and MetricsQL have limited querying capabilities comparing to SQL or InfluxQL. But they cover the most of use cases for analyzing time series measurements, and allow writing much simpler queries than InfluxQL or Flux for these particular cases [1].
