About Hawkular Metrics
Hawkular Metrics is a scalable, asynchronous, multi tenant, long term metrics storage engine that uses Cassandra as the data store and REST as the primary interface. This section provides an overview of some of the key features of Hawkular Metrics. The following sections provide in-depth discussions on these as well as other features. Hawkular Metrics is all about scalability. You can run a single instance backed by a single Cassandra node. You can also scale out Cassandra to multiple nodes to handle increasing loads. The Hawkular Metrics server employs a stateless architecture, which makes it easy to scale out as well. This diagram illustrates the various deployment options made possible with Hawkular Metrics' scalable architecture. The upper left shows the simplest deployment with a single Cassandra node and single Hawkular Metrics node. The bottom right picture shows that it is possible to run more Hawkular Metrics nodes than Cassandra nodes.
VictoriaMetrics
VictoriaMetrics is a fast and scalable open source time series database and monitoring solution. It's designed to be user-friendly, allowing users to build a monitoring platform without scalability issues and with minimal operational burden.
VictoriaMetrics is ideal for solving use cases with large amounts of time series data for IT infrastructure, APM, Kubernetes, IoT sensors, automotive vehicles, industrial telemetry, financial data, and other enterprise-level workloads.
VictoriaMetrics is powered by several components, making it the perfect solution for collecting metrics (both push and pull models), running queries, and generating alerts.
With VictoriaMetrics, you can store millions of data points per second on a single instance or scale to a high-load monitoring system across multiple data centers. Plus, it's designed to store 10x more data using the same compute and storage resources as existing solutions, making it a highly efficient choice.

Cortex
Cortex is an open source project that adds horizontal scalability. While Prometheus can scale up to 1 million samples/sec on a single machine, with Cortex horizontal scalability is practically limitless. In a constantly changing environment, you need alternative approaches to monitoring individual VMs or servers. Prometheus' service-discovery driven pull-based metrics system was designed for the dynamic nature of microservices. It lets you easily monitor your whole environment no matter how many moving parts. Instrument your application to create custom metrics using standard Prometheus client libraries, or take advantage of the extensive collection of Prometheus Exporters that collect data from existing applications like MySQL, Redis, Java, ElasticSearch and many more.

Blueflood
Blueflood is a high throughput, low latency, multi-tenant distributed metric processing system behind Rackspace Metrics, which is currently used in production by the Rackspace Monitoring team and Rackspace public cloud team to store metrics generated by their systems. In addition to Rackspace metrics, other large scale deployments of Blueflood can be found at community Wiki. Data from Blueflood can be used to construct dashboards, generate reports, graphs or for any other use involving time-series data. It focuses on near-realtime data, with data that is queryable mere milliseconds after ingestion. You send metrics to the ingestion service. You query your metrics from the Query service. And in the background, rollups are batch-processed offline so that queries for large time-periods are returned quickly.

Riak TS
Riak® TS is the only enterprise-grade NoSQL time series database optimized specifically for IoT and Time Series data. It ingests, transforms, stores, and analyzes massive amounts of time series data. Riak TS is engineered to be faster than Cassandra. The Riak TS masterless architecture is designed to read and write data even in the event of hardware failures or network partitions. Data is evenly distributed across the Riak ring and, by default, there are three replicas of your data. This ensures at least one copy of your data is available for read operations. Riak TS is a distributed system with no central coordinator. It is easy to set up and operate. The masterless architecture makes it easy to add and remove nodes from a cluster. The masterless architecture of Riak TS makes it easy to add and remove nodes from your cluster. You can achieve predictable and near-linear scale by adding nodes using commodity hardware.

The progression to modern application stacks and microservices architectures has resulted in orders of magnitude more logs, metrics, events, and traces. Like gravity, data attracts more data, making it increasingly difficult to move and process as it accumulates over time. More than ever, there is a need to be able to stream-process, filter, mask, transform, aggregate, analyze, and route that data to various data tier destinations optimized for specific usage.
