Metric limits

Chronosphere metrics have a variety of limits, depending on where your data is in the processing cycle.

Your license limits the amount of data you can write to and store within Chronosphere.

Metrics have the following size limits, which help ensure consistency and prevent issues with queries:

  • Label names: 512 characters
  • Label values: 1,024 characters
  • Max number of labels: 64 labels
  • Total time series bytes: 4,096 characters

Metrics quotas assign specific percentages of your total persisted writes limit to pools of metrics. Use quotas to limit groups of metrics and ensure Chronosphere retains the highest value metrics.
