Hello everyone, we have signedup for grafana cloud and have intregated apm, and aws monitoring. Currently we are on free tier which has a limit of 10k series. When i checked my current usage in billing section, its showing 30k metrics, but when i went to prometheus query editor and try to find all the metrics i have used so far its accounting for only 6-7k metrics. There’s not enough clarity on how did the usage arrive at 30k number and what caused it. If anyone has any idea on this, Please let us know
Metric != timeseries.
One metric (e.g. cpu{}) can have multiple timeseries (e.g. cpu{host="A"}, cpu{host="B"}, ...). How do you calculate the number of metrics and timeseries?
Why you didn’t show that query/used datasource/…? How do you know that’s a correct query for your use case?
Show timeseries graph for last 30 days for query on your prom datasource pls:
it’s very expensive PromQL query - it may kill your metric server
count by (__name__)({__name__=~".+"})
topk(100, count by (name)({name=~“.+”}))
this is the query i used
Find your billing dashboards and show your billable metrics/timeseries and your DPM.,pls
