Hi, I started porting the client_java Pushgateway module to the new 1.x version.
The previous implementation only supported Prometheus Text format. Now that client_java supports native histograms, I'd like to add Protobuf format. I'm wondering about backwards compatibility: What happens if I push a histogram (by default it's both classic and native representation) to an old Pushgateway that does not have native histogram support? If the native histogram representation just gets silently dropped that would be perfect, then I can just do it and not care about backwards compatibility. Is that the case, or could there be compatibility issues with older Pushgateways? Fabian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Developers" group.
