The Rise of Open Source Time Series Databases
Mimir [1] is what we use where I work. We are very happy with it, and we have very long retention. Previously, our Prometheus setup was extremely slow if you went past today, but Mimir partitions the data to make it extremely fast to query even long time periods. We also used Thanos for a while, but Mimir apparently worked better.

Monitoring Is a Pain
It consists of 6 separate components to run, plus 4 additional optional components [1]. And I don't even count 5 additional caches [2]. How is that "simple and easy"?

Is anyone frustrated with anything about Prometheus?
Yes, but also no. The Prometheus ecosystem already has two FOSS time-series databases that are complementary to Prometheus itself. Thanos and Mimir. Not to mention M3db, developed at Uber, and Cortex, then ancestor of Mimir. There's a bunch of others I won't mention as it would take too long.

Does anyone have an example of a simple mimir monolith docker compose config?

NTOP experience?
Grafana Agent can collect and stream data via Prometheus remote write protocol. Then you can either use Prometheus or Mimir. to receive the data at a central location. It depends on how many millions of series you need to collect.
- Prometheus node exporter and cadvisor to send metrics to central prometheus cluster

Thousandeyes Pricing Model
Long term storage all depends on your needs and sophistication. I use Thanos for our system since it has an extremely flexible scaling system. But there is also Grafana Mimir. They're both similar in that they use Prometheus TSDB format as part of the underlying storage. One nice Thanos advantage is that it does do downsampling in addition to being able to store raw metric data for a long time. It will auto-select downsampled data to make requests faster.
