Being software composed of different, multiple technologies can add complexity to a well-known concept: High Availability (HA). As you can see, stats are available via the port 8404. And here is the not-so-easy part: One has to deploy at least two PMM instances on at least two different servers AND set up replicas. How to do it?

Caching is the process of storing frequently accessed data or resources in a temporary storage location, such as memory or disk, to improve retrieval speed and reduce the need for repetitive processing. Bandwidth optimization: Caching reduces the amount of data transferred over the network, minimizing bandwidth usage and improving efficiency.
