Burhan @[email protected] Grafana PrometheusMonitoring BC Gain The New Stack Matt Mendick I'd summarise the problems enterprises face with Prometheus into broadly three categories: federation, scale & security. The federation arch for Prometheus is pretty out there for a lot of enterprises; this is why project like Thanos Monitoring and Cortex exist. 3/n

We just released Cortex 1.7.0-rc.0, containing 86 contributions from 23 authors! Highlights: - Queries can now be federated across multiple tenants (experimental) - Introduction of a per-tenant bucket index for block storage Give it try :) github.com/cortexproject/…

Very good question from @roidelapluie today on FOSDEM @[email protected]: "What prevents Cortex & Thanos Monitoring merging?" TL;DR: Current state (not merged/sharing code) has its perks and both projects don't want to spend 6 months renaming variables 🤗🙃

Cortex Community Meeting will take place later today, in 6 hours (15.30 UTC). Agenda and Zoom link available at docs.google.com/document/d/1sh…

🎉Cortex 1.8.0 has been released!🎉 It features 122 contributions by 35 authors. Thank you! Highlights: - Deletion of old blocks with per-tenant retention - Support for @ <timestamp> in PromQL - Per-tenant server-side encryption for S3 Go check it out! github.com/cortexproject/…

Cortex has just released versions 1.7.1 and 1.8.1 with a fix for local file disclosure vulnerability when using Cortex Alertmanager with enabled API (CVE-2021-31232). github.com/cortexproject/… github.com/cortexproject/…

Thrilled to have accepted a position with Grafana on the Cortex team! Excited to be back at it with open source work, time series data, and fun distributed systems.

🎉 Cortex 1.9.0-rc.0 has been cut! 🎉 Features 131 contributions by 28 authors. Thank you! Highlights: - Exciting features become stable like Shuffle-sharding - Query performance improvements! - Tons of bugfixes and optimisations! Go test it out! github.com/cortexproject/…

Thanks to all the 100+ people who joined the Cortex office hour at KubeCon! It was great touching base with the community and answering your great questions! Don't miss the 2nd office hour on Thu at 11:15 CEST: community.cncf.io/events/details…

Join Lisi and myself to learn about Cortex , the massively scaleable multi-tenant Prometheus, tomorrow at 15:05 CET sched.co/iE7M #KubeCon

New on the blog: Tom Wilkie reveals the key to better scalability and more isolation (with no added costs!) in Cortex: shuffle sharding grafana.com/blog/2021/05/1…

We’ve just open sourced a Kubernetes operator for Cortex. If you are using Cortex, or thinking about it, take a look. We opened this very early so you can follow progress and contribute. opstrace.com/blog/introduci…

Catch this #GrafanaCONline session to learn how Robinhood's observability team scaled to 700M time series and beyond on Cortex using Grafana Enterprise Metrics. grafana.com/go/grafanaconl…

Exciting news: today I join Grafana Labs as Distinguished Engineer for Grafana Cloud Backend, including Cortex, Loki and Tempo.

Great write-up about Cortex ingestion benchmarking! opstrace.com/blog/scaling-2…

Cortex is 5 years old today! The initial commit, which had a KV abstraction and some of the initial sharding code, is still in use to this day... github.com/cortexproject/…

Cortex 1.10 now released! With experimental Exemplars, GA Alertmanager sharding and many new options to protect your cluster from overload. github.com/cortexproject/…

Cortex v.1.10 is out ❤️ #cncf #cortex #kubernetes p3r.one/cortex-v1-10-u…

Great news! Congratulations Alvin Lin on becoming a Cortex maintainer! 🎊💯🥳 Looking forward to your continued contributions! 😊 github.com/cortexproject/…

If you're around at KubeCon EU and interested in CNCF Cortex, then come and join us for an informal Q & A meeting today (Thu 19 May) at 5pm in Tienda 4 (level 2 of the Solutions Showcase between the 2 exhibit halls)
