Aiven for Metrics is Now Available

Aiven has introduced a new metrics service called Aiven for Metrics, which is now in Early Availability. Similar to Aiven for M3, it is a Prometheus-compatible solution powered by Thanos, a CNCF project aimed at providing highly available Prometheus metrics with long term storage capabilities. Aiven for Metrics supports PromQL queries and provides the same in-console integrations to collect metrics from other Aiven services, and send those metrics to Aiven for Grafana with pre-built dashboards. The new service offers significant performance gains and cost savings over M3, as experienced by Aiven during its own internal migration process last year. Aiven for Metrics is available for launch from the Aiven console, and in-console migration and replication tools are provided for users currently using Aiven for M3 or Aiven for InfluxDB to easily import existing metrics without losing any historical data.
