The store component of Thanos implements the Store API on top of historical data in an object storage bucket. It acts primarily as an API gateway and therefore does not need significant amounts of local disk space. It joins a Thanos cluster on startup and advertises the data it can access. It keeps a small amount of information about all remote blocks on local disk and keeps it in sync with the bucket. This data is generally safe to delete across restarts at the cost of increased startup times.
$ thanos store \
--data-dir "/local/state/data/dir" \
--objstore.config-file "bucket.yml"The content of bucket.yml:
type: GCS
config:
bucket: example-bucketIn general about 1MB of local disk space is required per TSDB block stored in the object storage bucket.
usage: thanos store [<flags>]
store node giving access to blocks in a bucket provider. Now supported GCS, S3,
Azure, Swift and Tencent COS.
Flags:

verification on server side. (tls.NoClientCert)
--data-dir="./data" Data directory in which to cache remote blocks.
--index-cache-size=250MB Maximum size of items held in the in-memory
index cache. Ignored if --index-cache.config or

--store.grpc.series-sample-limit=0
Maximum amount of samples returned via a single
Series call. 0 means no limit. NOTE: For
efficiency we take 120 as the number of samples

--sync-block-duration=3m Repeat interval for syncing the blocks between
local and remote view.
--block-sync-concurrency=20
Number of goroutines to use when constructing
index-cache.json blocks from object storage.
--min-time=0000-01-01T00:00:00Z
Start of time range limit to serve. Thanos
Store will serve only metrics, which happened
later than this value. Option can be a constant
time in RFC3339 format or time duration
relative to current time, such as -1d or 2h45m.
Valid duration units are ms, s, m, h, d, w, y.
--max-time=9999-12-31T23:59:59Z
End of time range limit to serve. Thanos Store
will serve only blocks, which happened eariler
than this value. Option can be a constant time
in RFC3339 format or time duration relative to
current time, such as -1d or 2h45m. Valid
duration units are ms, s, m, h, d, w, y.
--selector.relabel-config-file=<file-path>
Path to YAML file that contains relabeling
configuration that allows selecting blocks. It
follows native Prometheus relabel-config
syntax. See format details:
https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#relabel_config
--selector.relabel-config=<content>
Alternative to 'selector.relabel-config-file'
flag (lower priority). Content of YAML file
that contains relabeling configuration that
allows selecting blocks. It follows native
Prometheus relabel-config syntax. See format

By default Thanos Store Gateway looks at all the data in Object Store and returns it based on query's time range.
Thanos Store --min-time, --max-time flags allows you to shard Thanos Store based on constant time or time duration relative to current time.
For example setting: --min-time=-6w & --max-time==-2w will make Thanos Store Gateway return metrics that fall within now - 6 weeks up to now - 2 weeks time range.
Constant time needs to be set in RFC3339 format. For example --min-time=2018-01-01T00:00:00Z, --max-time=2019-01-01T23:59:59Z.
Thanos Store Gateway might not get new blocks immediately, as Time partitioning is partly done in asynchronous block synchronization job, which is by default done every 3 minutes. Additionally some of the Object Store implementations provide eventual read-after-write consistency, which means that Thanos Store might not immediately get newly created & uploaded blocks anyway.
We recommend having overlapping time ranges with Thanos Sidecar and other Thanos Store gateways as this will improve your resiliency to failures.
Thanos Querier deals with overlapping time series by merging them together.
Filtering is done on a Chunk level, so Thanos Store might still return Samples which are outside of --min-time & --max-time.
- Thanos Store exposes two endpoints for probing.
/-/healthystarts as soon as initial setup completed./-/readystarts after all the bootstrapping completed (e.g initial index building) and ready to serve traffic.
NOTE: Metric endpoint starts immediately so, make sure you set up readiness probe on designated HTTP
/-/readypath.
Thanos Store Gateway supports an index cache to speed up postings and series lookups from TSDB blocks indexes. Two types of caches are supported:
in-memory(default)memcached
The in-memory index cache is enabled by default and its max size can be configured through the flag --index-cache-size.
Alternatively, the in-memory index cache can also by configured using --index-cache.config-file to reference to the configuration file or --index-cache.config to put yaml config directly:
type: IN-MEMORY
config:
max_size: 0
max_item_size: 0All the settings are optional:
max_size: overall maximum number of bytes cache can contain. The value should be specified with a bytes unit (ie.250MB).max_item_size: maximum size of single item, in bytes. The value should be specified with a bytes unit (ie.125MB).
The memcached index cache allows to use Memcached as cache backend. This cache type is configured using --index-cache.config-file to reference to the configuration file or --index-cache.config to put yaml config directly:
type: MEMCACHED
config:
addresses: []
timeout: 0s
max_idle_connections: 0
max_async_concurrency: 0
max_async_buffer_size: 0
max_get_multi_concurrency: 0
max_get_multi_batch_size: 0
dns_provider_update_interval: 0sThe required settings are:
addresses: list of memcached addresses, that will get resolved with the DNS service discovery provider.
While the remaining settings are optional:
timeout: the socket read/write timeout.max_idle_connections: maximum number of idle connections that will be maintained per address.max_async_concurrency: maximum number of concurrent asynchronous operations can occur.max_async_buffer_size: maximum number of enqueued asynchronous operations allowed.max_get_multi_concurrency: maximum number of concurrent connections when fetching keys. If set to0, the concurrency is unlimited.max_get_multi_batch_size: maximum number of keys a single underlying operation should fetch. If more keys are specified, internally keys are splitted into multiple batches and fetched concurrently, honoringmax_get_multi_concurrency. If set to0, the batch size is unlimited.dns_provider_update_interval: the DNS discovery update interval.
