- graphite isn't really data warehouse, thus I wouldn't recommend it as the primary storage for the verbatim/authoritative data - though saving data in graphite for graphing/etc and archived elsewhere too I think would cater in this case - it is possible as @addshore suggests to not downsample daily data for a really long time, e.g. keeping a daily metric for e.g. 100y takes 438028 bytes on disk for each metric - an analytics graphite instance could help, it means maintenance of that too of course. - if the volume of metrics isn't very high (no idea on the order of magnitude though) then using the main graphite is certainly less overhead. To give an example, if we're talking about 10k distinct metrics that'd be no problem, 100k would be ATM. hope that helps!
