Promscale supports reporting/ingestion of data using Prometheus remote-write for metrics, OTLP (OpenTelemetry Line Protocol) for traces.

Dashboards you can use Promscale as Prometheus datasource for PromQL based querying, visualising, as Jaeger datasource for querying, visualising traces and as PostgreSQL datasource to query both metrics and traces using SQL. If you are interested in visualising data using SQL, we recently published a blog on visualising traces using SQL (https://www.timescale.com/blog/learn-opentelemetry-tracing-w...)

Alerts needs to be configured on the Prometheus end, Promscale doesn't support alerting at the moment. But expect the native alerting from Promscale in the upcoming releases.

We have internally tested Promscale at 1Mil samples/sec, here is the resource recommendation guide for Promscale https://docs.timescale.com/promscale/latest/installation/rec...
