Seeing that VictoriaMetrics products are this popular with engineers worldwide is fantastic: Just a little over a year ago, we hit 10K stars, and with the adoption of VictoriaLogs, the star count now went beyond 14K. We don’t take these GitHub Stars milestones for granted: It’s amazing to see these stats grow organically thanks to the community of users out there who use our products. Thank you so much!

Cool new features
#
- Want to understand your data complexity aligned with the reading pattern? VictoriaMetrics Cardinality Explorer is a useful tool for understanding stored data and its impact on resource usage. With the latest updates, we combine the functionality of tracking metrics names (aka unused metrics) with your cardinality. Now, you can see the metrics with the highest number of time series along with the number of times they are a part of the queries.
- VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs have become more friendly for newbies since we released the two MCP servers: mcp-victoriametrics and mcp-victorialogs. This provides a comprehensive interface for managing logs, observability, and debugging tasks in your VictoriaLogs instances while enabling advanced automation and interaction capabilities for engineers and tools, or those who want to explore them deeply.
- Check out our new features in VictoriaMetrics Cloud: A revamped Organizations feature for better collaboration, seamless OpenTelemetry integration, a powerful new Explore tab, as well as additional API endpoints to enhance automation and control, together with many improvements based on your invaluable feedback.

Our team was on the road & online meeting users

VictoriaMetrics sponsored SCaLE22x, which is the largest community-run open-source and free software conference in North America. We enjoyed talking to the community about open source, monitoring, observability, golang, … our favorite topics! No one was left without stickers 😎
We held the first VictoriaMetrics Online Community Meet Up of the year where we talked about new and cool features implemented in our products for the first quarter. The recording is available on our YouTube channel, so don’t miss the opportunity to watch an exciting demo by Natan Yellin: Using AI + VictoriaMetrics to Answer Developer Questions!
Our products have a lot of interesting features that not everyone knows about, so this year we have launched and held four VictoriaMetrics Tech Talks series - online sessions, where you can see how VictoriaMetrics works for blackbox monitoring, explore how VictoriaLogs makes log management effortless, and more.
It was a pleasure meeting everyone at KubeCon 2025, hearing your feedback, and discussing open source observability! We were thrilled to share the latest innovations in VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs, and to reconnect with the community—especially following our time at KubeCon Salt Lake City 2024. KubeCon continues to be a fantastic opportunity to engage with the community about our open source solutions and explore how we can support your monitoring and observability goals. Watch the highlights and see you at the next KubeCone NA this fall!
Looking Ahead

There are several interesting events lined up for the near future.
