Mimir exposes both remote write API and Prometheus compatible API. The typical setup is that you configure Prometheus (or Grafana Agent) to remote write to Mimir and then you configure Grafana (or your preferred query tool) to query metrics from Mimir.

You may also be interested into looking at a 5 minutes introduction video, where I cover the overall architecture too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej9y3KILV8g

Cool! Personally I don't like watching videos, preferring to read prose or code or see an arch diagram. But good that it's available.

I'm the author of the video, but personally I also prefer to read prose instead of watching videos!

The architecture is covered here: https://grafana.com/docs/mimir/latest/operators-guide/archit...

There's also an hands-on tutorial here: https://grafana.com/tutorials/play-with-grafana-mimir/
