Is there any way to implement multi-tenancy with the non-cluster version?

I need compatibility with the Prometheus protocol, and I need some form of multi-tenancy - which is why I'm testing VictoriaMetrics. But for some of the typical use cases I have, I do not need the VM cluster. The single-service version would be enough (and in fact would be preferable due to simplicity). Having a multi-tenancy option in the single-service version would be awesome.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, single-node VictoriaMetrics has no built-in multi-tenancy. However, it can be emulated by adding `tenant_id` label to all the ingested metrics. Then you can restrict each tenant to its data by enforcing `tenant_id="<tenant_id>"` label in all the PromQL queries the user sends to VictoriaMetrics. This can be done with the recently added third-part Oauth proxy - see https://medium.com/@richard.holly/powerful-saas-solution-for-detection-metrics-c67b9208d362 .
