This enables you to send the metrics from multiple Prometheus servers to a single Cortex cluster and run "globally aggregated" queries across all data in a single place. -- **Highly available:** When run in a cluster, Cortex can replicate data between machines. This allows you to survive machine failure without gaps in your graphs. -- **Multi-tenant:** Cortex can isolate data and queries from multiple different independent -Prometheus sources in a single cluster, allowing untrusted parties to share the same cluster. -- **Long term storage:** Cortex supports S3, GCS, Swift and Microsoft Azure for long term storage of metric data.
