Hi @jjprachyl, the way the collector is coded, it is designed to allow pluggable back ends but the only supported back end in the current codebase is InfluxDB. To support Prometheus, a new back end plugin would need to be developed. I am definitely interested in Prometheus, but I haven't made time to investigate properly yet.
So the answer is that the collector is designed to allow pluggable back ends but somebody needs to write one for Prometheus.
I just merged Prometheus support. Many thanks to @bernd-reize for doing the work!
Can I swap out influx for prometheus?
