Hi guys,

I've been looking at replacing graphite for sometime.. being pretty bound to the push model here though.

I'm trying to figure out to do high-availability setups with prometheus? I was planning on setting it up on 2 physical servers - and I'd like my grafana dashboard and collecting still working, when a physical server is downed.. and it would be nice with loadsharing, but I'd be fine with DRBD between the two if need be.

Can you point to anything explaining how this works with prometheus.. I read about the federation - but can't see that giving me HA.. manual scaling though.. meaning that the grafana graphs would need to be manually edited to query the correct prometheus server (the one which actually has the data) as I understand it ?

Is there any routing/discovery - so grafana could query just one node.. and then it would route the request to the server who had the data?
