Re: [prometheus-developers] Maximum length of a time series in Prometheus
Prometheus timestamps are in int64 (signed) milliseconds. So the maximum number of data points per series is: 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 On Mon, Mar 27, 2023 at 3:24 PM Stuart Clark wrote: > On 2023-03-27 14:10, Abdelouahab Khelifati wrote: > > I mean the maximum number of datapoints per time series, not the > > length of a specific value. > > Sorry that is what I was meaning. > > There will be loads of resource or performance limitations - such as not > being able to load the data for very long periods of time without huge > amounts of memory.

Re: [prometheus-developers] Maximum length of a time series in Prometheus
I mean the maximum number of datapoints per time series, not the length of a specific value. Thanks!
