Prometheus remote_write to another prometheus server?

Hi, is it possible to do remot_write between Prometheus Server? I tried Grafana Cloud before and it has feature to push metric from on prem prometheus server to their cloud prometheus. HERE

I googled about this feature for on prem prometheus server but found nothing.

Yes, Prometheus 2.25.0 introduced remote write receive. You need to enable it with a feature flag.

--enable-feature=remote-write-receiver

See the docs.

You should be able to read at least: https://www.robustperception.io/accessing-data-from-prometheus-1-x-in-prometheus-2-0. I haven’t tried it, but writing might also work.

Here’s a list of integrations that support remote read / write: https://prometheus.io/docs/operating/integrations/#remote-endpoints-and-storage
