Show Notes
Detailed architecture comparison of Thanos (compactor, query, store) vs Cortex single-binary clustered architectures.
Key Takeaways
- Thanos Query federates metrics from multiple Prometheus instances dynamically.
- Object storage (S3/GCS) reduces monitoring compute costs by 90%.
- Compactors aggregate metrics into downsampled blocks for fast queries.
