# Overview of Managed VictoriaMetrics
VictoriaMetrics is a fast and easy-to-use monitoring solution and time series database.
It integrates well with existing monitoring systems such as Grafana, Prometheus, Graphite,
InfluxDB, OpenTSDB and DataDog - see [these docs ](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#how-to-import-time-series-data ) for details.
The most common use cases for VictoriaMetrics are:
* Long-term remote storage for Prometheus;
* More efficient drop-in replacement for Prometheus and Graphite
* Replacement for InfluxDB and OpenTSDB, which uses lower amounts of RAM, CPU and disk;
* Cost-efficient alternative for DataDog.

We run Managed VictoriaMetrics deployments in our environment on AWS and provide easy-to-use endpoints
2023-10-10 11:48:22 +00:00
for data ingestion and querying. The VictoriaMetrics team takes care of optimal configuration and software
2023-02-13 12:29:03 +00:00
maintenance.
Managed VictoriaMetrics comes with the following features:
* It can be used as a Managed Prometheus - just configure Prometheus or vmagent to write data to Managed VictoriaMetrics and then use the provided endpoint as a Prometheus datasource in Grafana;

* Built-in [Alerting & Recording ](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/managed-victoriametrics/alertmanager-setup-for-deployment/#configure-alerting-rules ) rules execution;
* Hosted [Alertmanager ](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/managed-victoriametrics/alertmanager-setup-for-deployment/ ) for sending notifications;
* Every Managed VictoriaMetrics deployment runs in an isolated environment, so deployments cannot interfere with each other;
* Managed VictoriaMetrics deployment can be scaled up or scaled down in a few clicks;

* Automated backups;

* Pay only for the actually used resources - compute, storage, traffic.
