Monitoring and Logging System

Distributed Metrics Monitoring and Aggregation System

Design a high-scale, distributed system capable of ingesting, storing, and querying 10 million metrics per second from a fleet of global microservices. The system must support real-time alerting with sub-10 second latency and provide high-performance analytical queries for long-term trend visualization (up to 1 year of data). Address challenges such as high-cardinality tags, data compression, and the trade-offs between write throughput and query latency in a cloud-native environment.

Monitoring and Logging System

Design a high-scale, end-to-end monitoring and logging system for a distributed microservices environment. The system must support metrics collection for real-time alerting and log aggregation for forensic debugging. Ensure the design can handle at least 1M metrics per second and TB-scale daily log volumes. Address critical concerns regarding ingestion bottlenecks, storage cost optimization, data retention, and the isolation of the monitoring infrastructure from the production environment.
