How vmstorage Turns Raw Metrics into Organized History

vmstorage is the component in VictoriaMetrics that handles long-term storage of monitoring data. It receives data from vminsert, organizes the data into efficient storage structures, and manages how long data is kept. Before vminsert even sees the data, agents are out there collecting it, these agents gather metrics from different sources, hold onto the data briefly, and then send it over to vminsert in batches.
