# Managed VictoriaMetrics
|
||||
|
||||
VictoriaMetrics is a fast and easy-to-use monitoring solution and time series database.
|
||||
It integrates well with existing monitoring systems such as Grafana, Prometheus, Graphite,
|
||||
InfluxDB, OpenTSDB and DataDog - see [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#how-to-import-time-series-data) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
The most common use cases for VictoriaMetrics are:
|
||||
* Long-term remote storage for Prometheus;
|
||||
* More efficient drop-in replacement for Prometheus and Graphite
|
||||
* Replacement for InfluxDB and OpenTSDB, which uses lower amounts of RAM, CPU and disk;
|
||||
* Cost-efficient alternative for DataDog.
|
||||
|
||||
We are glad to announce the availability of Managed VictoriaMetrics
|
||||
at AWS Marketplace - [try it right now](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-4tbfq5icmbmyc)!
|
||||
|
||||
Managed VictoriaMetrics allows users running VictoriaMetrics at AWS without the need to perform typical
|
||||
DevOps tasks such as proper configuration, monitoring, logs collection, access protection, software updates,
|
||||
backups, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
We run Managed VictoriaMetrics instances in our environment at AWS while providing easy-to-use endpoints
|
||||
for data ingestion and querying. And the VictoriaMetrics team takes care of optimal configuration and software
|
||||
maintenance.
|
||||
|
||||
Managed VictoriaMetrics comes with the following features:
|
||||
|
||||
* It can be used as a Managed Prometheus - just configure Prometheus or vmagent to write data to Managed VictoriaMetrics and then use the provided endpoint as a Prometheus datasource in Grafana;
|
||||
* Every Managed VictoriaMetrics instance runs in an isolated environment, so instances cannot interfere with each other;
|
||||
* Managed VictoriaMetrics instance can be scaled up or scaled down in a few clicks;
|
||||
* Automated backups;
|
||||
* Pay only for the actually used compute resources - instance type, disk and network.
|
||||
|
||||

# Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
Managed VictoriaMetrics - is a database-as-a-service platform, where users can run the VictoriaMetrics
|
||||
that they know and love on AWS without the need to perform typical DevOps tasks such as proper configuration,
|
||||
monitoring, logs collection, access protection, software updates, backups, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to register
|
||||
|
||||
Managed VictoriaMetrics id distributed via [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-4tbfq5icmbmyc).
|
||||
To start using the service, one should have already registered AWS account
|
||||
and visit [VictoriaMetrics product page](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-4tbfq5icmbmyc).
|
||||
See more details [here](https://dbaas.victoriametrics.com/howToRegister).
|
||||
|
||||
## Creating instance
|
||||
|
||||
Instances is a page where user can list and manage VictoriaMetrics single-node instances.
|
||||
To create an instance click on the button `Create`:
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<img src="quickstart-instances.png" width="800" alt="">
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
In the opened form, choose parameters of the new instance such as:
|
||||
|
||||
* `Instance type` from preset of AWS instances (you always can change the type later);
|
||||
* `Region` and `Zone` where instance should run;
|
||||
* Desired `disk size` for storing metrics (you always can expand disk size later);
|
||||
* `Retention` period for stored metrics.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<img src="quickstart-instance-create.png" width="800" alt="">
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
Once created, instance will remain for a short period of time in `PROVISIONING` status
|
||||
while the hardware spins-up, just wait for a couple of minutes and reload the page.
|
||||
You'll also be notified via email once provisioning is finished:
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<img src="quickstart-instance-provisioning.png" width="800" alt="">
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
## Access
|
||||
|
||||
After transition from `PROVISIONING` to `RUNNING` state, VictoriaMetrics is fully operational
|
||||
and ready to accept write or read requests. But first, click on instance name to get the access token:
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<img src="quickstart-tokens.png" width="800" alt="">
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
Access tokens are used in token-based authentication to allow an application to access the VictoriaMetrics API.
|
||||
Supported token types are `Read-Only`, `Write-Only` and `Read-Write`. Click on token created by default
|
||||
to see usage examples:
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<img src="quickstart-tokens-usage.png" width="800" alt="">
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
Follow usage example in order to configure access to VictoriaMetrics for your Prometheus,
|
||||
Grafana or any other software.
|
||||
|
||||
## Modifying
|
||||
|
||||
Remember, you always can add, remove or modify existing instances by changing their type or increasing the disk space.
|
||||
However, such an update requires an instance restart and may result into a couple of minutes of downtime.
