I had a question about the following statement from the post:

>"Prometheus's storage layer has historically shown outstanding performance, where a single server is able to ingest up to one million samples per second as several million time series"

How are there one million samples per second equating to several million time series? Is a single sample not equivalent to a single data point in a time series db for a particular metric in Prometheus?

[ah-]

I think this means that there are e.g. 10 million different time series, that each get a new sample appended every 10 seconds.
