Monitoring has become more efficient and resource usage has dropped significantly
VictoriaMetrics is built with memory constraints in mind, and we saved a significant amount of memory after implementing it. The first advantage is that it is quite easy to use, and we can leverage PromQL queries in VictoriaMetrics with a straightforward deployment process. The best aspect of using VictoriaMetrics is the reduction in resources including RAM, memory, disk, and other infrastructure requirements, which have all decreased substantially after implementation. We observed that RAM was reduced by around 70% and disk usage by 75%, while write speed increased 3x and query per second P95 latency became 7x faster. The financial savings are significant because we observed a substantial reduction in resources such as CPU and memory after adopting VictoriaMetrics.
