...The processes form a cluster using peer-to-peer Akka Cluster technology. Designed to ingest many millions of entities, sharded across multiple processes, with distributed querying built in. Support for indexing and fast querying over flexible tags for each time series/partition, just like Prometheus. Holds a huge amount of data in-memory thanks to columnar compression techniques. Designed for highly concurrent, low-latency workloads such as dashboards and alerting. Data immediately available for querying once ingested.

...Gizzard's architecture is designed for operational flexibility: you can change the shard layout over time, reassign replicas, migrate data between nodes, and have requests redirected during transitions. It also supports secondary indexing and provides hooks for custom logic in migrations and consistency. Because Gizzard handles much of the complexity of shard routing and cluster transitions, it was used to support large-scale, evolving storage backends in production.
