1. Aggregating Data with Query As shown above, the components that Thanos Query can connect to are: Thanos Store Gateway Thanos Query Thanos Receive Prometheus, by way of Sidecar By cascading Thanos Queries, we can perform correlated queries across components and build an extremely large monitoring system. This also means that every connected component should provide a sufficiently fast Prometheus API.

1. Layering of Monitoring As shown above, when building a monitoring system, two strategies are used: Layered monitoring. The benefit of separating IaaS, MySQL middleware, and App layer monitoring is that the systems have high availability and fault tolerance between them. When App layer monitoring stops working, IaaS layer monitoring will immediately make that visible.
