InfluxDB2, Prometheus, remote_read #20519

Open ssmiller25 opened 3 years ago

ssmiller25 commented 3 years ago

Influx 1.x supported Promethues remote_read endpoints As part of a migration, we were planning to leveraged that API to allow Grafana reports written in PromQL queries to still leverage metrics pushed to InfluxDB. We leveraged a mini Prometheus agent that would have the ability to read data leveraging the remote_read endpont in order to parse the PromQL Language.

We would like to see Promethues remote_read support added to InfluxDB 2.0. Alternatively if InfluxDB could natively support PromQL so that we could leverage our existing dashboards without needed to modify them, that would also be a solution.

Split from #17958 to separate discussion from remote_write.

Any updates on this feature? I would really prefer to use remote_read with Prometheus so I can keep my existing Grafana dashboards with a Prometheus data source, rather than migrate them to use the Influx DB data source.

timhallinflux commented 2 years ago

We have no immediate plans to add PromQL support.

+1， how can I use remote_read with Prometheus when I use InfluxDB2?

Ouch, InfluxDB 2.x lost functionality compared to 1.x? No remote_read is a huge blocker

Hi folks, can we have a update regarding this request? we can use telegraf to enable remote_write, how to configure for remote_read?
