Ability to govern active time series cardinality, configure retention and down sampling, and design multi-cluster federation with cross-cluster deduplication and write-path failover.

Experience Profile:

Verifiable production VM Cluster deployments handling sustained, high-cardinality workloads — not evaluation or sandbox only.
