You might want to look at *vmagent* instead (part of VictoriaMetrics). It does exactly what you want: scraping and remote writing only.
You can't disable local writing with prometheus because it depends on having at least *some* timeseries history for alerting rules, recording rules, federation etc - and indeed the WAL is used for buffering remote writes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
