QuestDB vs. VictoriaMetrics Community

QuestDB is well suited for any use case where you need to store large amount of data and the performance is the key factor - for both reads and writes. So use cases like market data storage in financial industry, any kind of telemetry, etc.

Best suited, where your data is highly cardinal since it does a better job at maintaining it than other competitors. It is also well suited if you are using Prometheus and are looking for something that is less hungry for resources in comparison since the migration would be easier. But in case the company is small and wants a solution which is cheap and relies on built-in visualizations, it is not something that is suited. Although it takes fewer resources than Prometheus, it is still resource-intensive and attracts a high cost for maintenance.

• New project so needs a bit polishing.

• Community and Eco system -> Although it supports the ecosystem of Prometheus, it is still troublesome for someone who's not using Prometheus
• Configuration is not so easy, especially if you are a beginner, you will struggle a bit. Even the documentation is not so welcoming for beginners
• Built-in Visualisation is bare minimal, leading almost everyone to use some other extension/tool

We were looking for time series database that will be able to handle L2 market data and came across QuestDB. From the beginning we were impressed how well the QuestDB performs and that it actually significantly outperforms all other open source TSDB on market like InfluxDB, ClickHouse, Timescale, etc. Apart from the excellent performance it is also super easy to use and deploy which makes the experience of using the database very pleasant - we were able to be up and running and storing data within few hours. Topic itself is the QuestDB team that is super responsive on their slack channel and always ready to help with any query. They are constantly improving the product and if there is some missing feature that is blocking you from usage they always try the best to implement such feature asap and release a new version - one of the best support I have ever seen so far in open source community.

Prometheus only support PromQL and it is very complex with different exporter required for different requirement like Windowsexporter,linixexporter,sqlexporter etc but VictoriaMetrics is very simple comapred to it. VictoriaMetrics support both PromQL and MetricQL and can be integrated with Graphana easily. It is very easy to setup and learn compared to mutiple Prometheus exporters

• Reduced cost.
• Increased efficiency.
• Faster time to market.

• Lowered our infra costs in comparison with our older tools
• Need minimal effort for migration since it already supports Prometheus ecosystem
• Saved on Storage costs
