VictoriaMetrics announced VictoriaMetrics Cloud, a hosted monitoring platform and managed service for metrics that allows organizations to monitor and store large amounts of time-series data, without having to run the underlying infrastructure.

VictoriaMetrics Cloud delivers the power of the VictoriaMetrics open-source time series solution with enterprise features.

Cloud-based and managed round-the-clock by VictoriaMetrics engineers, VictoriaMetrics Cloud removes the burden of running and maintaining your monitoring infrastructure. This means enterprises don’t need to devote valuable internal resources on learning and maintaining specific monitoring tools. Instead, these teams can provide valuable insights and suggest improvements to IT operations and digital product development.

Feedback from early adopters proves, compared to other leading solutions on the market, VictoriaMetrics Cloud significantly reduces monitoring costs by up to 5x, freeing up budget for other projects.

Additionally, VictoriaMetrics uses a highly compressed time series format that significantly reduces storage requirements compared to other time-series databases. This allows customers to store more data on the same hardware. VictoriaMetrics can also ingest and query data with minimal CPU overhead, allowing you to run it on hardware with fewer cores, resulting in lower costs.

Managing VictoriaMetrics on-premises requires manual scaling, a time-consuming and error-prone process that involves adding new nodes or increasing resource allocation. In contrast, VictoriaMetrics Cloud simplifies scaling by offering tiered upgrades. This ensures a smoother, more reliable scaling experience.

Customers can choose a VictoriaMetrics Cloud tier based on their needs, from starter plans, for smaller deployments, to high-powered options for massive datasets. For organisations already tied into using Grafana Cloud, a popular hosted monitoring platform, VictoriaMetrics Cloud integrates seamlessly.

VictoriaMetrics Cloud is flexible and customizable, integrating seamlessly with existing monitoring tools and infrastructure, such as OpenTelemetry. IT teams can build custom monitoring solutions to meet their specific needs. Importantly, customers can, if needed, easily switch back to the open-source VictoriaMetrics.

“VictoriaMetrics Cloud is a game-changer for companies looking for a powerful and cost-effective monitoring solution,” explains Artem Navoiev, Co-Founder at VictoriaMetrics. “This service will help organisations scale to billions of time series while keeping costs predictable.”

In a significant step forward in its commitment to helping enterprises expand their current monitoring of applications into a more strategic ‘state of all systems’ enterprise-wide observability, VictoriaMetrics will soon announce General Availability of VictoriaLogs. This easy-to-use open-source log management solution is designed for efficient log storage and analysis combining a powerful query language, for easy log searching with minimal resource requirements.
