Single-node community metrics ingestion and MetricsQL queries.

Persistent disk storage with one-month retention.

Private HTTPS access and a timestamped ingestion walkthrough.

Quick start

Full guide →
  1. Launch and wait for startup
  2. Use the private connection
  3. Ingest a sample and query it

Starting configuration

  • t3.small · 2 GiB minimum
  • 24 GiB root storage
  • Private HTTPS · port 8443

These are minimum starting sizes, not throughput benchmarks.

Scope and limits

Package limits. Single node with one-month retention. No cluster, tenant isolation, enterprise feature set, Grafana or Prometheus agent is included. The native server port stays on loopback. Provision additional storage for your ingestion volume and retention needs.

Unresolved security findings

This version has not passed the full Software Sushi security gate. Read the exact version-specific known issues and maintenance, including the raw High/Critical matches and coverage limitations, before deployment. A successful application task or Marketplace listing does not certify a clean host.

Billing

The approved launch software rate is USD 0.02 per running instance-hour for the offer’s listed instance type; confirm the actual offer before subscribing. EC2, EBS and data transfer are billed separately. There is no bundled software trial or annual term. Stop or terminate unused instances to control compute and hourly software usage; retained EBS volumes and other AWS resources can continue to incur charges.

Where to go next

  • Getting started: launch, connect privately and complete your first task.
  • Operations: known issues, backups, upgrades, logs and support.
