We use VictoriaMetrics at work since I think 2019 or something. The tl;dr is that it works great.

When we migrated to it we replaced 6 prometheus servers with only 1 victoria metrics server, it was crazy efficient. We ran with a single node for all our metrics for 3 years while the number of data points observed kept growing. Today we run a 7 node cluster.

I have no idea if today Prometheus could serve our workload as efficiently but for information, a provider wanted to quote us like 300k€ per year to serve the same metrics; our setup doesn't cost anywhere near that.
