Questions about Loki

[paulchen2]

1. Does Loki have a Cluster feature to keep the service uninterrupted

2. Does Loki have the function of load balance, which can disperse the collection and storage of huge amounts of data without performance degradation.

3. After Loki’s data volume grows, how does the system expand? Can Online scale up/ scale out?

4. Is it possible to do an online upgrade to upgrade the Loki software when the service does not stop?

• Does Loki have a Cluster feature to keep the service uninterrupted

Yes, if you use kubernetes, you can use cluster deployment
Microservices deployment with Helm | Grafana Loki documentation

• Does Loki have the function of load balance, which can disperse the collection and storage of huge amounts of data without performance degradation.

As per point 1, you can use ingress in kubernetes to have load balance in the cluster

• After Loki’s data volume grows, how does the system expand? Can Online scale up/ scale out?

For data volume, you can use write module to S3 storage such as Minio, AWS S3 or other solution.

• Is it possible to do an online upgrade to upgrade the Loki software when the service does not stop?

When use kubernetes helm chart, you can upgrade without any interuption of service.
