Hey, Stuart thanks for your answer. I will look into my remote storage client libraries. I guess I'm just trying to reduce the complexity because all I really need is to send my custom metrics to remote storage, and I don't want to use Prometheus in the middle. The metrics pipeline I'm trying to build is: MyApp -> remote storage, instead of: MyApp -> prometheus -> remote storage
