Metrics are generally available
Blog post from Axiom
Axiom's recently launched MetricsDB, now generally available, offers a unified platform for managing logs, traces, metrics, and events, enabling teams to query all machine data from one place without the traditional "metrics tax" associated with active time series. This release introduces a production-ready environment for ingesting, querying, and monitoring metrics with a pricing model that charges based on data volume rather than the number of dimensions tracked, thus facilitating greater data visibility without financial penalties. Axiom's Metrics Processing Language (MPL), designed for time-series operations, allows for code-first querying, making it suitable for AI agents that continuously monitor system anomalies. With MPL, users can easily transition from existing languages like PromQL, aided by a migration guide provided by Axiom. By leveraging object storage and ephemeral compute, MetricsDB efficiently manages high-cardinality data, eliminating the need for pre-aggregation, while its approach to pricing and management ensures scalability and cost efficiency for large-scale operations.
