100% Prometheus Compatible With Control Levers of a Data Platform
Levitate comes with default control levers that help reduce costs. These levers are four-fold:
- Data Tiering
Automatic data tiering avoids latent dashboards, and keeps queries across teams blazing fast. - High Cardinality
Solve for cardinality at the ingestion layer to reduce storage & costs, using Streaming Aggregations. - Client Separation
Control which tier can serve alertmanager queries and Grafana workloads, using access tokens and policies. - Concurrency Control
Limit the active number of queries the tier can handle simultaneously.
Bring Your Own Cloud
With the Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) deployment model, Levitate is deployed in your Cloud, or on-premise.
Save costs in three categories:
- Customers can retire their Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) commitment when applicable, massively reducing infra costs.
- Zero Egress costs and no worries about overages.
- Purchase Levitate from AWS or Google Cloud Marketplaces to ease procurement, avail cloud credits and discounts.
Additionally, data never leaves your infrastructure, solving compliance & regulatory concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the supported regions for Levitate's managed service for Prometheus?
Levitate is globally available across different regions such as North America(us-east-1), APAC India(ap-south-1), APAC Singapore(ap-south-east-1), Europe(eu-west-1). Levitate also supports AWS PrivateLink and VPC peering to eliminate egress costs. The BYOC deployment model applies to all regions.
How do I migrate from self-hosted Prometheus or other Managed Prometheus provider to Levitate?
Levitate needs no complex migration. Levitate is compatible with Prometheus Remote Write API. Create a Levitate Cluster and start writing to it using Prometheus Remote Write from your existing setup within minutes. Once you are satisfied with Levitate, eliminate Prometheus storage and compute if you are using self-hosted Prometheus.
How do I collect metrics data and send it to Levitate?
Levitate supports open standards — OpenMetrics, OpenTelemetry, and integrates with open-source tools such as Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, InfluxDB, Telegraf, and StatsD. Additionally, it can also collect metrics from AWS Cloudwatch Stream via OpenTelemetry-based Kinesis Stream integration. It can accept metrics from OpenTelemetry Collector and various other ways using Prometheus Remote Write. No need to run proprietary agents or data collectors.
Can I monitor CloudWatch using Levitate?
Yes. Monitoring Cloudwatch using Levitate has one distinct advantage over monitoring using Cloudwatch itself. Cloudwatch charges for accessing its read API. Levitate leverages the AWS Cloudwatch metric stream integration, which streams metrics from AWS to Levitate, which does not result in increased AWS Cloudwatch Bill.
