We plan to implement downsampling in the future. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/36) for details. +It is possible to (ab)use [-dedup.minScrapeInterval](#deduplication) for basic downsampling. +For instance, if interval between the ingested data points is 15s, then `-dedup.minScrapeInterval=5m` will leave +only a single data point out of 20 initial data points per each 5m interval. + ### Multi-tenancy Single-node VictoriaMetrics doesn't support multi-tenancy. Use [cluster version](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/cluster) instead.
