Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus

In one line

Samples ingested, GB stored, samples processed by queries. Ingestion usually dominates.

What gets missed

Alerting and recording rules run as queries, so a busy rule set bills query samples on every evaluation. AWS managed collectors add an hourly charge. There is no data-transfer-in charge.
