Hey Tom!

Can you outline how Cortex differs from some of the other available Prometheus backends?

Sure, check out this talk from PromCon I did with Bartek, the Thanos author: https://grafana.com/blog/2019/11/21/promcon-recap-two-househ...

Love that talk. :)

VictoriaMetrics FAQ contains comparisons to Cortex [1] and Thanos [2].

Great job Cortex team, Do you think this means Cortex will move to incubation in the CNCF landscape ?

I hope so! Goutham is apply for incubation as we speak..

This will also depend on SIG o11y, the creation of which is currently being voted on by CNCF TOC. TOC vote is looking good and projects which have been in sandbox for some time are obvious candidates for early review.
