Due to `KISS` cluster version of VictoriaMetrics has no the following "features" popular in distributed computing world:
- Fragile [gossip protocols](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossip_protocol).
- Fragile [gossip protocols](https://github.com/improbable-eng/thanos/blob/030bc345c12c446962225221795f4973848caab5/docs/proposals/completed/201809_gossip-removal.md).
