Generally when I look around or try to understand the HA setup for Prometheus the most common search results are Cortex & Thanos. I've also seen M3 and Victoriametrics on the list.
What I understand is that Cortex and Thanos support is mainly for HA, Multitenancy and Long term storage.
So what situations would be best to go with the vanilla setup of Prometheus with the HA setup (of alertmanager) recommended by them, which also support certain amounts on Long Term.
Basically, when would these solutions be the best option over vanilla Alertmanager HA and when would they be an overkill?
Would the basic setup be fine if we don't need to consider multitenancy and storage (30 days or less)
