+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression,
+level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal
+appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+ advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+ address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+ professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the project team at info@victoriametrics.com. All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.
+
+## Attribution
+
+This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage], version 1.4,
+available at https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html
+
+[homepage]: https://www.contributor-covenant.org

CONTRIBUTING.md

@@ -0,0 +1,16 @@
+If you like VictoriaMetrics and want to contribute, then we need the following:
+
+- Filing issues and feature requests [here](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues).
+- Spreading a word about VictoriaMetrics: conference talks, articles, comments, experience sharing with colleagues.
+- Updating documentation.
+
+We are open to third-party pull requests provided they follow [KISS design principle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle):
+
+- Prefer simple code and architecture.
+- Avoid complex abstractions.
+- Avoid magic code and fancy algorithms.
+- Avoid [big external dependencies](https://medium.com/@valyala/stripping-dependency-bloat-in-victoriametrics-docker-image-983fb5912b0d).
+- Minimize the number of moving parts in the distributed system.
+- Avoid automated decisions, which may hurt cluster availability, consistency or performance.
+
+Adhering `KISS` principle simplifies the resulting code and architecture, so it can be reviewed, understood and verified by many people.

+

+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

-### VictoriaMetrics features
+<img alt="Victoria Metrics" src="logo.png">
 
-- Native [PromQL](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/) support. Additionally, VictoriaMetrics extends PromQL with useful features. See [Extended PromQL](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/wiki/ExtendedPromQL) for more details.
-- Simple configuration. Just copy-n-paste remote storage URL to Prometheus config and that's it! See [Quick Start](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/wiki/Quick-Start) for more info.
-- Reduced operational overhead. Prometheus local storage retention may be set to the minimum possible value when using VictoriaMetrics remote storage. This effectively makes Prometheus stateless, so it may be run as a stateless service in Kubernetes.
-- Insertion rate scales to millions of metric values per second.
-- Storage scales to millions of metrics with trillions of metric values.
-- Wide range of retention periods - from 1 month to 5 years. Users may create different projects (aka `storage namespaces`) with different retention periods.
-- Fast query engine. It excels on heavy queries over thousands of metrics with millions of metric values.
-- The same remote storage URL may be used by multiple Prometheus instances collecting distinct metric sets, so all these metrics may be used in a single query (aka `global querying view`). This works ideally for multiple Prometheus instances located in different subnetworks / datacenters.
-- Accepts data in [InfluxDB line protocol](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/write_protocols/line_protocol_reference/), so [Telegraf](https://www.influxdata.com/time-series-platform/telegraf/) and other influx-compatible agents may send data to VictoriaMetrics.
+## Single-node VictoriaMetrics
+
+VictoriaMetrics is fast, cost-effective and scalable time-series database. It can be used as long-term remote storage for Prometheus.
+It is available in [binary releases](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases),
+[docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/victoriametrics/victoria-metrics/) and
+in [source code](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics).
+
+Cluster version is available [here](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/cluster).

+
+### How to start VictoriaMetrics
+
+Just start VictoriaMetrics [executable](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases)
+or [docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/victoriametrics/victoria-metrics/) with the desired command-line flags.
+
+The following command-line flags are used the most:
+
+* `-storageDataPath` - path to data directory. VictoriaMetrics stores all the data in this directory. Default path is `victoria-metrics-data` in current working directory.
+* `-retentionPeriod` - retention period in months for the data. Older data is automatically deleted. Default period is 1 month.
+* `-httpListenAddr` - TCP address to listen to for http requests. By default, it listens port `8428` on all the network interfaces.
+* `-graphiteListenAddr` - TCP and UDP address to listen to for Graphite data. By default, it is disabled.
+* `-opentsdbListenAddr` - TCP and UDP address to listen to for OpenTSDB data over telnet protocol. By default, it is disabled.
+* `-opentsdbHTTPListenAddr` - TCP address to listen to for HTTP OpenTSDB data over `/api/put`. By default, it is disabled.
+
+Pass `-help` to see all the available flags with description and default values.
+
+It is recommended setting up [monitoring](#monitoring) for VictoriaMetrics.
+
+
+### Prometheus setup
+
+Add the following lines to Prometheus config file (it is usually located at `/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml`):
+
+```yml
+remote_write:
+  - url: http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/api/v1/write
+    queue_config:
+      max_samples_per_send: 10000
+      max_shards: 30
+```
+
+Substitute `<victoriametrics-addr>` with the hostname or IP address of VictoriaMetrics.
+Then apply the new config via the following command:
+
+```
+kill -HUP `pidof prometheus`
+```
+
+Prometheus writes incoming data to local storage and replicates it to remote storage in parallel.
+This means the data remains available in local storage for `--storage.tsdb.retention.time` duration
+even if remote storage is unavailable.
+
+If you plan to send data to VictoriaMetrics from multiple Prometheus instances, then add the following lines into `global` section
+of [Prometheus config](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#configuration-file):
+
+```yml
+global:
+  external_labels:
+    datacenter: dc-123
+```
+
+This instructs Prometheus to add `datacenter=dc-123` label to each time series sent to remote storage.
+The label name may be arbitrary - `datacenter` is just an example. The label value must be unique
+across Prometheus instances, so those time series may be filtered and grouped by this label.
+
+
+It is recommended upgrading Prometheus to [v2.12.0](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/releases) or newer,
+since the previous versions may have issues with `remote_write`.
+
+
+### Grafana setup
+
+Create [Prometheus datasource](http://docs.grafana.org/features/datasources/prometheus/) in Grafana with the following Url:
+
+```
+http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428
+```
+
+Substitute `<victoriametrics-addr>` with the hostname or IP address of VictoriaMetrics.
+
+Then build graphs with the created datasource using [Prometheus query language](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/).
+VictoriaMetrics supports native PromQL and [extends it with useful features](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/wiki/ExtendedPromQL).
+
+
+### How to upgrade VictoriaMetrics?
+
+It is safe upgrading VictoriaMetrics to new versions unless [release notes](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases)
+say otherwise. It is recommended performing regular upgrades to the latest version,
+since it may contain important bug fixes, performance optimizations or new features.
+
+Follow the following steps during the upgrade:
+
+1) Send `SIGINT` signal to VictoriaMetrics process in order to gracefully stop it.
+2) Wait until the process stops. This can take a few seconds.
+3) Start the upgraded VictoriaMetrics.
+
+Prometheus doesn't drop data during VictoriaMetrics restart.
+See [this article](https://grafana.com/blog/2019/03/25/whats-new-in-prometheus-2.8-wal-based-remote-write/) for details.
+
+
+### How to apply new config to VictoriaMetrics?
+
+VictoriaMetrics must be restarted for applying new config:
+
+1) Send `SIGINT` signal to VictoriaMetrics process in order to gracefully stop it.
+2) Wait until the process stops. This can take a few seconds.
+3) Start VictoriaMetrics with the new config.
+
+Prometheus doesn't drop data during VictoriaMetrics restart.
+See [this article](https://grafana.com/blog/2019/03/25/whats-new-in-prometheus-2.8-wal-based-remote-write/) for details.
+
+
+### How to send data from InfluxDB-compatible agents such as [Telegraf](https://www.influxdata.com/time-series-platform/telegraf/)?
+
+Just use `http://<victoriametric-addr>:8428` url instead of InfluxDB url in agents' configs.
+For instance, put the following lines into `Telegraf` config, so it sends data to VictoriaMetrics instead of InfluxDB:
+
+```
+[[outputs.influxdb]]
+  urls = ["http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428"]
+```
+
+Do not forget substituting `<victoriametrics-addr>` with the real address where VictoriaMetrics runs.
+
+VictoriaMetrics maps Influx data using the following rules:
+* [`db` query arg](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/tools/api/#write-http-endpoint) is mapped into `db` label value
+  unless `db` tag exists in the Influx line.
+* Field names are mapped to time series names prefixed with `{measurement}{separator}` value,
+  where `{separator}` equals to `_` by default. It can be changed with `-influxMeasurementFieldSeparator` command-line flag.
+  See also `-influxSkipSingleField` command-line flag. If `{measurement}` is empty, then time series names correspond to field names.
+* Field values are mapped to time series values.
+* Tags are mapped to Prometheus labels as-is.
+
+For example, the following Influx line:
+
+```
+foo,tag1=value1,tag2=value2 field1=12,field2=40
+```
+
+is converted into the following Prometheus data points:
+
+```
+foo_field1{tag1="value1", tag2="value2"} 12
+foo_field2{tag1="value1", tag2="value2"} 40
+```
+
+Example for writing data with [Influx line protocol](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/write_protocols/line_protocol_tutorial/)
+to local VictoriaMetrics using `curl`:
+
+```
+curl -d 'measurement,tag1=value1,tag2=value2 field1=123,field2=1.23' -X POST 'http://localhost:8428/write'
+```
+
+An arbitrary number of lines delimited by '\n' may be sent in a single request.
+After that the data may be read via [/api/v1/export](#how-to-export-time-series) endpoint:
+
+```
+curl -G 'http://localhost:8428/api/v1/export' -d 'match={__name__=~"measurement_.*"}'
+```
+
+The `/api/v1/export` endpoint should return the following response:
+
+```
+{"metric":{"__name__":"measurement_field1","tag1":"value1","tag2":"value2"},"values":[123],"timestamps":[1560272508147]}
+{"metric":{"__name__":"measurement_field2","tag1":"value1","tag2":"value2"},"values":[1.23],"timestamps":[1560272508147]}
+```
+
+Note that Influx line protocol expects [timestamps in *nanoseconds* by default](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/write_protocols/line_protocol_tutorial/#timestamp),
+while VictoriaMetrics stores them with *milliseconds* precision.
+
+
+### How to send data from Graphite-compatible agents such as [StatsD](https://github.com/etsy/statsd)?
+
+1) Enable Graphite receiver in VictoriaMetrics by setting `-graphiteListenAddr` command line flag. For instance,
+the following command will enable Graphite receiver in VictoriaMetrics on TCP and UDP port `2003`:
+
+```
+/path/to/victoria-metrics-prod -graphiteListenAddr=:2003
+```
+
+2) Use the configured address in Graphite-compatible agents. For instance, set `graphiteHost`
+to the VictoriaMetrics host in `StatsD` configs.
+
+
+Example for writing data with Graphite plaintext protocol to local VictoriaMetrics using `nc`:
+
+```
+echo "foo.bar.baz;tag1=value1;tag2=value2 123 `date +%s`" | nc -N localhost 2003
+```
+
+VictoriaMetrics sets the current time if the timestamp is omitted.
+An arbitrary number of lines delimited by `\n` may be sent in one go.
+After that the data may be read via [/api/v1/export](#how-to-export-time-series) endpoint:
+
+```
+curl -G 'http://localhost:8428/api/v1/export' -d 'match=foo.bar.baz'
+```
+
+The `/api/v1/export` endpoint should return the following response:
+
+```
+{"metric":{"__name__":"foo.bar.baz","tag1":"value1","tag2":"value2"},"values":[123],"timestamps":[1560277406000]}
+```
+
+
+### Querying Graphite data
+
+Data sent to VictoriaMetrics via `Graphite plaintext protocol` may be read either via
+[Prometheus querying API](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/)
+or via [go-graphite/carbonapi](https://github.com/go-graphite/carbonapi/blob/master/cmd/carbonapi/carbonapi.example.prometheus.yaml).
+
+
+
+### How to send data from OpenTSDB-compatible agents?
+
+VictoriaMetrics supports [telnet put protocol](http://opentsdb.net/docs/build/html/api_telnet/put.html)
+and [HTTP /api/put requests](http://opentsdb.net/docs/build/html/api_http/put.html) for ingesting OpenTSDB data.
+
+#### Sending data via `telnet put` protocol
+
+1) Enable OpenTSDB receiver in VictoriaMetrics by setting `-opentsdbListenAddr` command line flag. For instance,
+the following command enables OpenTSDB receiver in VictoriaMetrics on TCP and UDP port `4242`:
+
+```
+/path/to/victoria-metrics-prod -opentsdbListenAddr=:4242
+```
+
+2) Send data to the given address from OpenTSDB-compatible agents.
+
+
+Example for writing data with OpenTSDB protocol to local VictoriaMetrics using `nc`:
+
+```
+echo "put foo.bar.baz `date +%s` 123 tag1=value1 tag2=value2" | nc -N localhost 4242
+```
+
+An arbitrary number of lines delimited by `\n` may be sent in one go.
+After that the data may be read via [/api/v1/export](#how-to-export-time-series) endpoint:
+
+```
+curl -G 'http://localhost:8428/api/v1/export' -d 'match=foo.bar.baz'
+```
+
+The `/api/v1/export` endpoint should return the following response:
+
+```
+{"metric":{"__name__":"foo.bar.baz","tag1":"value1","tag2":"value2"},"values":[123],"timestamps":[1560277292000]}
+```
+
+
+#### Sending OpenTSDB data via HTTP `/api/put` requests
+
+1) Enable HTTP server for OpenTSDB `/api/put` requests by setting `-opentsdbHTTPListenAddr` command line flag. For instance,
+the following command enables OpenTSDB HTTP server on port `4242`:
+
+```
+/path/to/victoria-metrics-prod -opentsdbHTTPListenAddr=:4242
+```
+
+2) Send data to the given address from OpenTSDB-compatible agents.
+
+Example for writing a single data point:
+
+```
+curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"metric":"x.y.z","value":45.34,"tags":{"t1":"v1","t2":"v2"}}' http://localhost:4242/api/put
+```
+
+Example for writing multiple data points in a single request:
+
+```
+curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '[{"metric":"foo","value":45.34},{"metric":"bar","value":43}]' http://localhost:4242/api/put
+```
+
+After that the data may be read via [/api/v1/export](#how-to-export-time-series) endpoint:
+
+```
+curl -G 'http://localhost:8428/api/v1/export' -d 'match[]=x.y.z' -d 'match[]=foo' -d 'match[]=bar'
+```
+
+The `/api/v1/export` endpoint should return the following response:
+
+```
+{"metric":{"__name__":"foo"},"values":[45.34],"timestamps":[1566464846000]}
+{"metric":{"__name__":"bar"},"values":[43],"timestamps":[1566464846000]}
+{"metric":{"__name__":"x.y.z","t1":"v1","t2":"v2"},"values":[45.34],"timestamps":[1566464763000]}
+```
+
+
+### How to build from sources
+
+We recommend using either [binary releases](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases) or
+[docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/victoriametrics/victoria-metrics/) instead of building VictoriaMetrics
+from sources. Building from sources is reasonable when developing additional features specific
+to your needs.
+
+
+#### Development build
+
+1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). The minimum supported version is Go 1.12.
+2. Run `make victoria-metrics` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `victoria-metrics` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Production build
+
+1. [Install docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/).
+2. Run `make victoria-metrics-prod` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `victoria-metrics-prod` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### ARM build
+
+ARM build may run on Raspberry Pi or on [energy-efficient ARM servers](https://blog.cloudflare.com/arm-takes-wing/).
+
+#### Development ARM build
+
+1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). The minimum supported version is Go 1.12.
+2. Run `make victoria-metrics-arm` or `make victoria-metrics-arm64` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `victoria-metrics-arm` or `victoria-metrics-arm64` binary respectively and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Production ARM build
+
+1. [Install docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/).
+2. Run `make victoria-metrics-arm-prod` or `make victoria-metrics-arm64-prod` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `victoria-metrics-arm-prod` or `victoria-metrics-arm64-prod` binary respectively and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Pure Go build (CGO_ENABLED=0)
+
+`Pure Go` mode builds only Go code without [cgo](https://golang.org/cmd/cgo/) dependencies.
+This is an experimental mode, which may result in a lower compression ratio and slower decompression performance.
+Use it with caution!
+
+1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). The minimum supported version is Go 1.12.
+2. Run `make victoria-metrics-pure` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `victoria-metrics-pure` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Building docker images
+
+Run `make package-victoria-metrics`. It builds `victoriametrics/victoria-metrics:<PKG_TAG>` docker image locally.
+`<PKG_TAG>` is auto-generated image tag, which depends on source code in the repository.
+The `<PKG_TAG>` may be manually set via `PKG_TAG=foobar make package-victoria-metrics`.
+
+
+### Start with docker-compose
+
+[Docker-compose](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/docker-compose.yml)
+helps to spin up VictoriaMetrics, Prometheus and Grafana with one command.
+More details may be found [here](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/master/deployment/docker#folder-contains-basic-images-and-tools-for-building-and-running-victoria-metrics-in-docker).
+
+
+### Setting up service
+
+Read [these instructions](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/43) on how to set up VictoriaMetrics as a service in your OS.
+
+
+### Third-party contributions
+
+* [Unofficial yum repository](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/antonpatsev/VictoriaMetrics/) ([source code](https://github.com/patsevanton/victoriametrics-rpm))
+
+
+### How to work with snapshots?
+
+VictoriaMetrics can create [instant snapshots](https://medium.com/@valyala/how-victoriametrics-makes-instant-snapshots-for-multi-terabyte-time-series-data-e1f3fb0e0282)
+for all the data stored under `-storageDataPath` directory.
+Navigate to `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/snapshot/create` in order to create an instant snapshot.
+The page will return the following JSON response:
+
+```
+{"status":"ok","snapshot":"<snapshot-name>"}
+```
+
+Snapshots are created under `<-storageDataPath>/snapshots` directory, where `<-storageDataPath>`
+is the command-line flag value. Snapshots can be archived to backup storage at any time
+with [vmbackup](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/app/vmbackup/README.md).
+
+The `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/snapshot/list` page contains the list of available snapshots.
+
+Navigate to `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/snapshot/delete?snapshot=<snapshot-name>` in order
+to delete `<snapshot-name>` snapshot.
+
+Navigate to `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/snapshot/delete_all` in order to delete all the snapshots.
+
+Steps for restoring from a snapshot:
+1. Stop VictoriaMetrics with `kill -INT`.
+2. Restore snapshot contents from backup with [vmrestore](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/app/vmrestore/README.md)
+   to the directory pointed by `-storageDataPath`.
+3. Start VictoriaMetrics.
+
+
+### How to delete time series?
+
+Send a request to `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/api/v1/admin/tsdb/delete_series?match[]=<timeseries_selector_for_delete>`,
+where `<timeseries_selector_for_delete>` may contain any [time series selector](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/#time-series-selectors)
+for metrics to delete. After that all the time series matching the given selector are deleted. Storage space for
+the deleted time series isn't freed instantly - it is freed during subsequent merges of data files.
+
+It is recommended verifying which metrics will be deleted with the call to `http://<victoria-metrics-addr>:8428/api/v1/series?match[]=<timeseries_selector_for_delete>`
+before actually deleting the metrics.
+
+
+### How to export time series?
+
+Send a request to `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/api/v1/export?match[]=<timeseries_selector_for_export>`,
+where `<timeseries_selector_for_export>` may contain any [time series selector](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/#time-series-selectors)
+for metrics to export. The response would contain all the data for the selected time series in [JSON streaming format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_streaming#Line-delimited_JSON).
+Each JSON line would contain data for a single time series. An example output:
+
+```
+{"metric":{"__name__":"up","job":"node_exporter","instance":"localhost:9100"},"values":[0,0,0],"timestamps":[1549891472010,1549891487724,1549891503438]}
+{"metric":{"__name__":"up","job":"prometheus","instance":"localhost:9090"},"values":[1,1,1],"timestamps":[1549891461511,1549891476511,1549891491511]}
+```
+
+Optional `start` and `end` args may be added to the request in order to limit the time frame for the exported data. These args may contain either
+unix timestamp in seconds or [RFC3339](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3339.txt) values.
+
+
+### Federation
+
+VictoriaMetrics exports [Prometheus-compatible federation data](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/federation/)
+at `http://<victoriametrics-addr>:8428/federate?match[]=<timeseries_selector_for_federation>`.
+
+Optional `start` and `end` args may be added to the request in order to scrape the last point for each selected time series on the `[start ... end]` interval.
+`start` and `end` may contain either unix timestamp in seconds or [RFC3339](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3339.txt) values. By default, the last point
+on the interval `[now - max_lookback ... now]` is scraped for each time series. The default value for `max_lookback` is `5m` (5 minutes), but it can be overridden.
+For instance, `/federate?match[]=up&max_lookback=1h` would return last points on the `[now - 1h ... now]` interval. This may be useful for time series federation
+with scrape intervals exceeding `5m`.
+
+
+### Capacity planning
+
+A rough estimation of the required resources for ingestion path:
+
+* RAM size: less than 1KB per active time series. So, ~1GB of RAM is required for 1M active time series.
+  Time series is considered active if new data points have been added to it recently or if it has been recently queried.
+  The number of active time series may be obtained from `vm_cache_entries{type="storage/hour_metric_ids"}` metric
+  exproted on the `/metrics` page.
+  VictoriaMetrics stores various caches in RAM. Memory size for these caches may be limited by `-memory.allowedPercent` flag.
+
+* CPU cores: a CPU core per 300K inserted data points per second. So, ~4 CPU cores are required for processing
+  the insert stream of 1M data points per second. The ingestion rate may be lower for high cardinality data or for time series with high number of labels.
+  See [this article](https://medium.com/@valyala/insert-benchmarks-with-inch-influxdb-vs-victoriametrics-e31a41ae2893) for details.
+  If you see lower numbers per CPU core, then it is likely active time series info doesn't fit caches,
+  so you need more RAM for lowering CPU usage.
+
+* Storage space: less than a byte per data point on average. So, ~260GB is required for storing a month-long insert stream
+  of 100K data points per second.
+  The actual storage size heavily depends on data randomness (entropy). Higher randomness means higher storage size requirements.
+  Read [this article](https://medium.com/faun/victoriametrics-achieving-better-compression-for-time-series-data-than-gorilla-317bc1f95932)
+  for details.
+
+* Network usage: outbound traffic is negligible. Ingress traffic is ~100 bytes per ingested data point via
+  [Prometheus remote_write API](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#remote_write).
+  The actual ingress bandwidth usage depends on the average number of labels per ingested metric and the average size
+  of label values. The higher number of per-metric labels and longer label values mean the higher ingress bandwidth.
+
+
+The required resources for query path:
+
+* RAM size: depends on the number of time series to scan in each query and the `step`
+  argument passed to [/api/v1/query_range](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#range-queries).
+  The higher number of scanned time series and lower `step` argument results in the higher RAM usage.
+
+* CPU cores: a CPU core per 30 millions of scanned data points per second.
+
+* Network usage: depends on the frequency and the type of incoming requests. Typical Grafana dashboards usually
+  require negligible network bandwidth.
+
+
+### High availability
+
+1) Install multiple VictoriaMetrics instances in distinct datacenters (availability zones).
+2) Add addresses of these instances to `remote_write` section in Prometheus config:
+
+```yml
+remote_write:
+  - url: http://<victoriametrics-addr-1>:8428/api/v1/write
+    queue_config:
+      max_samples_per_send: 10000
+  # ...
+  - url: http://<victoriametrics-addr-N>:8428/api/v1/write
+    queue_config:
+      max_samples_per_send: 10000
+```
+
+3) Apply the updated config:
+
+```
+kill -HUP `pidof prometheus`
+```
+
+4) Now Prometheus should write data into all the configured `remote_write` urls in parallel.
+5) Set up [Promxy](https://github.com/jacksontj/promxy) in front of all the VictoriaMetrics replicas.
+6) Set up Prometheus datasource in Grafana that points to Promxy.
+
+
+If you have Prometheus HA pairs with replicas `r1` and `r2` in each pair, then configure each `r1`
+to write data to `victoriametrics-addr-1`, while each `r2` should write data to `victoriametrics-addr-2`.
+
+
+### Multiple retentions
+
+Just start multiple VictoriaMetrics instances with distinct values for the following flags:
+
+* `-retentionPeriod`
+* `-storageDataPath`, so the data for each retention period is saved in a separate directory
+* `-httpListenAddr`, so clients may reach VictoriaMetrics instance with proper retention
+
+
+### Downsampling
+
+There is no downsampling support at the moment, but:
+- VictoriaMetrics is optimized for querying big amounts of raw data. See benchmark results for heavy queries
+  in [this article](https://medium.com/@valyala/measuring-vertical-scalability-for-time-series-databases-in-google-cloud-92550d78d8ae).
+- VictoriaMetrics has good compression for on-disk data. See [this article](https://medium.com/@valyala/victoriametrics-achieving-better-compression-for-time-series-data-than-gorilla-317bc1f95932)
+  for details.
+
+These properties reduce the need in downsampling. We plan to implement downsampling in the future.
+See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/36) for details.
+
+
+### Multi-tenancy
+
+Single-node VictoriaMetrics doesn't support multi-tenancy. Use [cluster version](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/cluster) instead.
+
+
+### Scalability and cluster version
+
+Though single-node VictoriaMetrics cannot scale to multiple nodes, it is optimized for resource usage - storage size / bandwidth / IOPS, RAM, CPU.
+This means that a single-node VictoriaMetrics may scale vertically and substitute a moderately sized cluster built with competing solutions
+such as Thanos, Uber M3, InfluxDB or TimescaleDB. See [vertical scalability benchmarks](https://medium.com/@valyala/measuring-vertical-scalability-for-time-series-databases-in-google-cloud-92550d78d8ae).
+
+So try single-node VictoriaMetrics at first and then [switch to cluster version](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/cluster) if you still need
+horizontally scalable long-term remote storage for really large Prometheus deployments.
+[Contact us](mailto:info@victoriametrics.com) for paid support.
+
+
+### Alerting
+
+VictoriaMetrics doesn't support rule evaluation and alerting yet, so these actions must be performed either
+on [Prometheus side](https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/overview/) or on [Grafana side](https://grafana.com/docs/alerting/rules/).
+
+
+### Security
+
+Do not forget protecting sensitive endpoints in VictoriaMetrics when exposing it to untrusted networks such as the internet.
+Consider setting the following command-line flags:
+
+* `-tls`, `-tlsCertFile` and `-tlsKeyFile` for switching from HTTP to HTTPS.
+* `-httpAuth.username` and `-httpAuth.password` for protecting all the HTTP endpoints
+  with [HTTP Basic Authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication).
+* `-deleteAuthKey` for protecting `/api/v1/admin/tsdb/delete_series` endpoint. See [how to delete time series](#how-to-delete-time-series).
+* `-snapshotAuthKey` for protecting `/snapshot*` endpoints. See [how to work with snapshots](#how-to-work-with-snapshots).
+
+Explicitly set internal network interface for TCP and UDP ports for data ingestion with Graphite and OpenTSDB formats.
+For example, substitute `-graphiteListenAddr=:2003` with `-graphiteListenAddr=<internal_iface_ip>:2003`.
+
+
+### Tuning
+
+* There is no need in VictoriaMetrics tuning since it uses reasonable defaults for command-line flags,
+  which are automatically adjusted for the available CPU and RAM resources.
+* There is no need in Operating System tuning since VictoriaMetrics is optimized for default OS settings.
+  The only option is increasing the limit on [the number of open files in the OS](https://medium.com/@muhammadtriwibowo/set-permanently-ulimit-n-open-files-in-ubuntu-4d61064429a),
+  so Prometheus instances could establish more connections to VictoriaMetrics.
+* The recommended filesystem is `ext4`, the recommended persistent storage is [persistent HDD-based disk on GCP](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/#pdspecs),
+  since it is protected from hardware failures via internal replication and it can be [resized on the fly](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/add-persistent-disk#resize_pd).
+  If you plan storing more than 1TB of data on `ext4` partition or plan extending it to more than 16TB,
+  then the following options are recommended to pass to `mkfs.ext4`:
+
+```
+mkfs.ext4 ... -O 64bit,huge_file,extent -T huge
+```
+
+
+### Monitoring
+
+VictoriaMetrics exports internal metrics in Prometheus format on the `/metrics` page.
+Add this page to Prometheus' scrape config in order to collect VictoriaMetrics metrics.
+There is [an official Grafana dashboard for single-node VictoriaMetrics](https://grafana.com/dashboards/10229).
+
+The most interesting metrics are:
+
+* `vm_cache_entries{type="storage/hour_metric_ids"}` - the number of time series with new data points during the last hour
+  aka active time series.
+* `rate(vm_new_timeseries_created_total[5m])` - time series churn rate.
+* `vm_rows{type="indexdb"}` - the number of rows in inverted index. High value for this number usually mean high churn rate for time series.
+* Sum of `vm_rows{type="storage/big"}` and `vm_rows{type="storage/small"}` - total number of `(timestamp, value)` data points
+  in the database.
+* Sum of all the `vm_cache_size_bytes` metrics - the total size of all the caches in the database.
+* `vm_allowed_memory_bytes` - the maximum allowed size for caches in the database. It is calculated as `system_memory * <-memory.allowedPercent> / 100`,
+  where `system_memory` is the amount of system memory and `-memory.allowedPercent` is the corresponding flag value.
+* `vm_rows_inserted_total` - the total number of inserted rows since VictoriaMetrics start.
+
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+* It is recommended to use default command-line flag values (i.e. don't set them explicitly) until the need
+  in tweaking these flag values arises.
+
+* If VictoriaMetrics works slowly and eats more than a CPU core per 100K ingested data points per second,
+  then it is likely you have too many active time series for the current amount of RAM.
+  It is recommended increasing the amount of RAM on the node with VictoriaMetrics in order to improve
+  ingestion performance.
+  Another option is to increase `-memory.allowedPercent` command-line flag value. Be careful with this
+  option, since too big value for `-memory.allowedPercent` may result in high I/O usage.
+
+* VictoriaMetrics requires free disk space for [merging data files to bigger ones](https://medium.com/@valyala/how-victoriametrics-makes-instant-snapshots-for-multi-terabyte-time-series-data-e1f3fb0e0282).
+  It may slow down when there is no enough free space left. So make sure `-storageDataPath` directory
+  has at least 20% of free space comparing to disk size.
+
+* If VictoriaMetrics doesn't work because of certain parts are corrupted due to disk errors,
+  then just remove directoreis with broken parts. This will recover VictoriaMetrics at the cost
+  of data loss stored in the broken parts. In the future, `vmrecover` tool will be created
+  for automatic recovering from such errors.
+
+
+### Backfilling
+
+Make sure that configured `-retentionPeriod` covers timestamps for the backfilled data.
+
+It is recommended disabling query cache with `-search.disableCache` command-line flag when writing
+historical data with timestamps from the past, since the cache assumes that the data is written with
+the current timestamps. Query cache can be enabled after the backfilling is complete.
+
+
+### Profiling
+
+VictoriaMetrics provides handlers for collecting the following [Go profiles](https://blog.golang.org/profiling-go-programs):
+
+- Memory profile. It can be collected with the following command:
+```
+curl -s http://<victoria-metrics-host>:8428/debug/pprof/heap > mem.pprof
+```
+
+- CPU profile. It can be collected with the following command:
+```
+curl -s http://<victoria-metrics-host>:8428/debug/pprof/profile > cpu.pprof
+```
+
+The command for collecting CPU profile waits for 30 seconds before returning.
+
+The collected profiles may be analyzed with [go tool pprof](https://github.com/google/pprof).
+
+
+## Integrations
+
+* [netdata](https://github.com/netdata/netdata) can push data into VictoriaMetrics via `Prometheus remote_write API`.
+  See [these docs](https://github.com/netdata/netdata#integrations).
+* [go-graphite/carbonapi](https://github.com/go-graphite/carbonapi) can use VictoriaMetrics as time series backend.
+  See [this example](/blob/master/cmd/carbonapi/carbonapi.example.prometheus.yaml).
+* [Ansible role for installing VictoriaMetrics](https://github.com/dreamteam-gg/ansible-victoriametrics-role).

+- Prefer simple code and architecture.
+- Avoid complex abstractions.
+- Avoid magic code and fancy algorithms.
+- Avoid [big external dependencies](https://medium.com/@valyala/stripping-dependency-bloat-in-victoriametrics-docker-image-983fb5912b0d).
+- Minimize the number of moving parts in the distributed system.
+- Avoid automated decisions, which may hurt cluster availability, consistency or performance.
+
+Adhering `KISS` principle simplifies the resulting code and architecture, so it can be reviewed, understood and verified by many people.

+## vmbackup
+
+`vmbackup` creates VictoriaMetrics data backups from [instant snapshots](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/README.md#how-to-work-with-snapshots).
+
+Supported storage systems for backups:
+
+* [GCS](https://cloud.google.com/storage/). Example: `gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/backup>`
+* [S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/). Example: `s3://<bucket>/<path/to/backup>`
+* Any S3-compatible storage such as [MinIO](https://github.com/minio/minio). See `-customS3Endpoint` command-line flag.
+* Local filesystem. Example: `fs://</absolute/path/to/backup>`
+
+Incremental backups and full backups are supported. Incremental backups are created automatically if the destination path already contains data from the previous backup.
+Full backups can be sped up with `-origin` pointing to already existing backup on the same remote storage. In this case `vmbackup` makes server-side copy for the shared
+data between the existing backup and new backup. This saves time and costs on data transfer.
+
+Backup process can be interrupted at any time. It is automatically resumed from the interruption point when restarting `vmbackup` with the same args.
+
+Backed up data can be restored with [vmrestore](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/app/vmrestore/README.md).
+
+See [this article](https://medium.com/@valyala/speeding-up-backups-for-big-time-series-databases-533c1a927883) for more details.
+
+
+### Use cases
+
+#### Regular backups
+
+Regular backup can be performed with the following command:
+
+```
+vmbackup -storageDataPath=</path/to/victoria-metrics-data> -snapshotName=<local-snapshot> -dst=gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/new/backup>
+```
+
+* `</path/to/victoria-metrics-data>` - path to VictoriaMetrics data pointed by `-storageDataPath` command-line flag in single-node VictoriaMetrics or in cluster `vmstorage`.
+  There is no need to stop VictoriaMetrics for creating backups, since they are performed from immutable [instant snapshots](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/README.md#how-to-work-with-snapshots).
+* `<local-snapshot>` is the snapshot to backup. See [how to create instant snapshots](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/README.md#how-to-work-with-snapshots).
+* `<bucket>` is already existing name for [GCS bucket](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/creating-buckets).
+* `<path/to/new/backup>` is the destination path where new backup will be placed.
+
+
+#### Regular backups with server-side copy from existing backup
+
+If the destination GCS bucket already contains the previous backup at `-origin` path, then new backup can be sped up
+with the following command:
+
+```
+vmbackup -storageDataPath=</path/to/victoria-metrics-data> -snapshotName=<local-snapshot> -dst=gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/new/backup> -origin=gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/existing/backup>
+```
+
+This saves time and network bandwidth costs by performing server-side copy for the shared data from the `-origin` to `-dst`.
+
+
+#### Incremental backups
+
+Incremental backups are performed if `-dst` points to already existing backup. In this case only new data is uploaded to remote storage.
+This saves time and network bandwidth costs when working with big backups:
+
+```
+vmbackup -storageDataPath=</path/to/victoria-metrics-data> -snapshotName=<local-snapshot> -dst=gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/existing/backup>
+```
+
+
+#### Smart backups
+
+Smart backups mean storing full daily backups into `YYYYMMDD` folders and creating incremental hourly backup into `latest` folder:
+
+* Run the following command every hour:
+
+```
+vmbackup -snapshotName=<latest-snapshot> -dst=gcs://<bucket>/latest
+```
+
+Where `<latest-snapshot>` is the latest [snapshot](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/README.md#how-to-work-with-snapshots).
+The command will upload only changed data to `gcs://<bucket>/latest`.
+
+* Run the following command once a day:
+
+```
+vmbackup -snapshotName=<daily-snapshot> -dst=gcs://<bucket>/<YYYYMMDD> -origin=gcs://<bucket>/latest
+```
+
+Where `<daily-snapshot>` is the snapshot for the last day `<YYYYMMDD>`.
+
+
+This apporach saves network bandwidth costs on hourly backups (since they are incremental) and allows recovering data from either the last hour (`latest` backup)
+or from any day (`YYYYMMDD` backups). Note that hourly backup shouldn't run when creating daily backup.
+
+Do not forget removing old snapshots and backups when they are no longer needed for saving storage costs.
+
+
+### How does it work?
+
+The backup algorithm is the following:
+
+1. Collect information about files in the `-snapshotName`, in the `-dst` and in the `-origin`.
+2. Determine files in `-dst`, which are missing in `-snapshotName`, and delete them. These are usually small files, which are already merged into bigger files in the snapshot.
+3. Determine files from `-snapshotName`, which are missing in `-dst`. These are usually small new files and bigger merged files.
+4. Determine files from step 3, which exist in the `-origin`, and perform server-side copy of these files from `-origin` to `-dst`.
+   This are usually the biggest and the oldest files, which are shared between backups.
+5. Upload the remaining files from setp 3 from `-snapshotName` to `-dst`.
+
+The algorithm splits source files into 100MB chunks in the backup. Each chunk is stored as a separate file in the backup.
+Such splitting minimizes the amounts of data to re-transfer after temporary errors.
+
+`vmbackup` relies on [instant snapshot](https://medium.com/@valyala/how-victoriametrics-makes-instant-snapshots-for-multi-terabyte-time-series-data-e1f3fb0e0282) properties:
+
+- All the files in the snapshot are immutable.
+- Old files are periodically merged into new files.
+- Smaller files have higher probability to be merged.
+- Consecutive snapshots share many identical files.
+
+These properties allow performing fast and cheap incremental backups and server-side copying from `-origin` paths.
+See [this article](https://medium.com/@valyala/speeding-up-backups-for-big-time-series-databases-533c1a927883) for more details.
+`vmbackup` can work improperly or slowly when these properties are violated.
+
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+* If the backup is slow, then try setting higher value for `-concurrency` flag. This will increase the number of concurrent workers that upload data to backup storage.
+* If `vmbackup` eats all the network bandwidth, then set `-maxBytesPerSecond` to the desired value.
+* If `vmbackup` has been interrupted due to temporary error, then just restart it with the same args. It will resume the backup process.
+
+
+### Advanced usage
+
+Run `vmbackup -help` in order to see all the available options:
+
+```
+  -concurrency int
+    	The number of concurrent workers. Higher concurrency may reduce backup duration (default 10)
+  -configFilePath string
+    	Path to file with S3 configs. Configs are loaded from default location if not set.
+    	See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-security-credentials.html
+  -configProfile string
+    	Profile name for S3 configs (default "default")
+  -credsFilePath string
+    	Path to file with GCS or S3 credentials. Credentials are loaded from default locations if not set.
+    	See https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-account-keys and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-security-credentials.html
+  -customS3Endpoint string
+    	Custom S3 endpoint for use with S3-compatible storages (e.g. MinIO). S3 is used if not set
+  -dst string
+    	Where to put the backup on the remote storage. Example: gcs://bucket/path/to/backup/dir, s3://bucket/path/to/backup/dir or fs:///path/to/local/backup/dir
+    	-dst can point to the previous backup. In this case incremental backup is performed, i.e. only changed data is uploaded
+  -loggerLevel string
+    	Minimum level of errors to log. Possible values: INFO, ERROR, FATAL, PANIC (default "INFO")
+  -maxBytesPerSecond int
+    	The maximum upload speed. There is no limit if it is set to 0
+  -memory.allowedPercent float
+    	Allowed percent of system memory VictoriaMetrics caches may occupy (default 60)
+  -origin string
+    	Optional origin directory on the remote storage with old backup for server-side copying when performing full backup. This speeds up full backups
+  -snapshotName string
+    	Name for the snapshot to backup. See https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/README.md#how-to-work-with-snapshots
+  -storageDataPath string
+    	Path to VictoriaMetrics data. Must match -storageDataPath from VictoriaMetrics or vmstorage (default "victoria-metrics-data")
+  -version
+    	Show VictoriaMetrics version
+```
+
+
+### How to build from sources
+
+It is recommended using [binary releases](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases) - see `vmutils-*` archives there.
+
+
+#### Development build
+
+1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). The minimum supported version is Go 1.12.
+2. Run `make vmbackup` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `vmbackup` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Production build
+
+1. [Install docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/).
+2. Run `make vmbackup-prod` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `vmbackup-prod` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Building docker images
+
+Run `make package-vmbackup`. It builds `victoriametrics/vmbackup:<PKG_TAG>` docker image locally.
+`<PKG_TAG>` is auto-generated image tag, which depends on source code in the repository.
+The `<PKG_TAG>` may be manually set via `PKG_TAG=foobar make package-vmbackup`.

+## vmrestore
+
+`vmrestore` restores data from backups created by [vmbackup](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/app/vmbackup/README.md).
+VictoriaMetrics `v1.29.0` and newer versions must be used for working with the restored data.
+
+Restore process can be interrupted at any time. It is automatically resumed from the inerruption point
+when restarting `vmrestore` with the same args.
+
+
+### Usage
+
+VictoriaMetrics must be stopped during the restore process.
+
+```
+vmrestore -src=gcs://<bucket>/<path/to/backup> -storageDataPath=<local/path/to/restore>
+
+```
+
+* `<bucket>` is [GCS bucket](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/creating-buckets) name.
+* `<path/to/backup>` is the path to backup made with [vmbackup](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/app/vmbackup/README.md) on GCS bucket.
+* `<local/path/to/restore>` is the path to folder where data will be restored. This folder must be passed
+  to VictoriaMetrics in `-storageDataPath` command-line flag after the restore process is complete.
+
+The original `-storageDataPath` directory may contain old files. They will be susbstituted by the files from backup.
+
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+* If `vmrestore` eats all the network bandwidth, then set `-maxBytesPerSecond` to the desired value.
+* If `vmrestore` has been interrupted due to temporary error, then just restart it with the same args. It will resume the restore process.
+
+
+### Advanced usage
+
+Run `vmrestore -help` in order to see all the available options:
+
+```
+  -concurrency int
+    	The number of concurrent workers. Higher concurrency may reduce restore duration (default 10)
+  -configFilePath string
+    	Path to file with S3 configs. Configs are loaded from default location if not set.
+    	See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-security-credentials.html
+  -configProfile string
+    	Profile name for S3 configs (default "default")
+  -credsFilePath string
+    	Path to file with GCS or S3 credentials. Credentials are loaded from default locations if not set.
+    	See https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-account-keys and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-security-credentials.html
+  -customS3Endpoint string
+    	Custom S3 endpoint for use with S3-compatible storages (e.g. MinIO). S3 is used if not set
+  -loggerLevel string
+    	Minimum level of errors to log. Possible values: INFO, ERROR, FATAL, PANIC (default "INFO")
+  -maxBytesPerSecond int
+    	The maximum download speed. There is no limit if it is set to 0
+  -memory.allowedPercent float
+    	Allowed percent of system memory VictoriaMetrics caches may occupy (default 60)
+  -src string
+    	Source path with backup on the remote storage. Example: gcs://bucket/path/to/backup/dir, s3://bucket/path/to/backup/dir or fs:///path/to/local/backup/dir
+  -storageDataPath string
+    	Destination path where backup must be restored. VictoriaMetrics must be stopped when restoring from backup. -storageDataPath dir can be non-empty. In this case only missing data is downloaded from backup (default "victoria-metrics-data")
+  -version
+    	Show VictoriaMetrics version
+```
+
+
+### How to build from sources
+
+It is recommended using [binary releases](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases) - see `vmutils-*` archives there.
+
+
+#### Development build
+
+1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). The minimum supported version is Go 1.12.
+2. Run `make vmrestore` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `vmrestore` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Production build
+
+1. [Install docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/).
+2. Run `make vmrestore-prod` from the root folder of the repository.
+   It builds `vmrestore-prod` binary and puts it into the `bin` folder.
+
+#### Building docker images
+
+Run `make package-vmrestore`. It builds `victoriametrics/vmrestore:<PKG_TAG>` docker image locally.
+`<PKG_TAG>` is auto-generated image tag, which depends on source code in the repository.
+The `<PKG_TAG>` may be manually set via `PKG_TAG=foobar make package-vmrestore`.
