Thanks a lot for the advice, Stuart. After some research, I found that I can use Opentelemtry to build the metrics pipeline I need. They recently developed a remote write exporter for their python SDK. I'm attaching a link to the project in case you or anyone else is interested: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib/tree/release/0.17b0/exporter/opentelemetry-exporter-prometheus-remote-write Thanks for your help.
