Re:Ingest OpenTelemetry metrics with Prometheus natively by valyala on Saturday July 29, 2023 @08:10PM (#36926253)
VictoriaMetrics has many users, who successfully migrated from InfluxDB. It supports data ingestion via Influx line protocol, so you can continue using Telegraf and sending the collected metrics to VictoriaMetrics instead of InfluxDB. You get the following benefits after the migration from InfluxDB to VictoriaMetrics:

- Reduced memory usage by up to 10x [1].

- Reduced disk space usage.

- Higher query performance.

- Better query language than InfluxQL and Flux for typical queries over collected metrics [2].

- Compatibility with Prometheus ecosystem.
