## Historique du projet et usages

Cortex is a horizontally scalable, highly available, multi-tenant long-term storage system for Prometheus and OpenTelemetry metrics. It is normally deployed as a server-side observability backend rather than used as a local CLI tool.

### Historique du projet

The official Cortex documentation states that the project was started by Tom Wilkie and Prometheus co-founder Julius Volz in June 2016. The public GitHub repository was created later in 2016, and the README describes a system built for scale, high availability, multi-tenancy, and long-term object storage.

### Historique d'adoption

Cortex's adoption history is tied to Prometheus remote write and cloud-native observability. The official documentation's further-reading section traces public talks from PromCon 2016 through KubeCon sessions, and lists managed or production-oriented material from Grafana Labs, AWS, CNCF, and other operators.

### Modes d'utilisation

Operators deploy Cortex as single-binary or microservices components. Prometheus instances push samples via remote write, while Cortex distributes, ingests, stores, and queries data across long-term storage backends such as S3, GCS, Swift, and Azure.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Cortex matters to package and infrastructure maintainers because it turns Prometheus from a single-node time-series database into a multi-tenant distributed system. Packaging is only a small part of the story; configuration, Kubernetes deployment, storage backends, ring state, and service topology dominate real-world distribution.

### Chronologie

- 2016: Cortex project started in June by Tom Wilkie and Julius Volz.
- 2016: Public GitHub repository created in September.
- 2018: Official documentation lists CNCF and KubeCon materials presenting Cortex as scalable Prometheus.
- 2026: Official GitHub releases include the v1.21.x series.

### Related projects

- Related projects include Prometheus, OpenTelemetry Metrics, Thanos, Grafana Mimir, Alertmanager, and cloud object stores used for long-term metrics storage.
