Promxy is an aggregating proxy written in Go that makes multiple Prometheus shards appear as a single API endpoint. It merges duplicate time-series data from HA Prometheus hosts and provides unified PromQL query federation without requiring sidecars or changes to existing Prometheus infrastructure.

Use cases

  • run highly available prometheus with merged data from duplicate hosts
  • give grafana a single datasource for multiple prometheus servers
  • run globally aggregated promql queries across prometheus shards
  • fill gaps in timeseries caused by prometheus restarts or upgrades
  • simplify prometheus operations when scaling beyond one host

When to choose

  • you run multiple identical prometheus hosts for HA and want them to appear as one endpoint
  • you need cross-shard promql aggregation without sidecars or custom prometheus builds
  • you want to reduce grafana datasource confusion across many prometheus instances

When to avoid

  • you run a single prometheus instance with no HA requirements
  • you need full clustering or long-term storage rather than query federation
  • you rely on prometheus features promxy does not proxy
