+gRPC is a high-performance, open source RPC framework.
+
+It offers a way to push metrics to a custom storage backend 
+by implementing your own gRPC server based on pgwatch 
+[protobuf definition](https://github.com/cybertec-postgresql/pgwatch/blob/master/api/pb/pgwatch.proto). 
+
+This is useful when none of the built-in storage options meet your needs.

+- pgwatch allows users to choose from a variety of **storage backends** aka **sinks** for storing monitoring data, such as JSON file, TimescaleDB, Prometheus, PostgreSQL, or a custom gRPC-based backend.
 - The **user interface** for pgwatch is powered by **Grafana dashboards**, providing interactive and detailed visualization of the collected metrics. Users can easily view the performance and status of their databases in real-time, drill down into historical data, and configure custom dashboard views based on their preferences.

+# Sinks Options & Parameters
+
+## PostgreSQL
+
+The PostgreSQL sink URI format is the standard [PostgreSQL connection string](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNSTRING-URIS),
+e.g.
+
+```bash
+--sink=postgresql://user:pwd@host:port/dbname?sslmode=disable&connect_timeout=10
+```
+
+All [standard environment variables](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-envars.html) are supported as well.
+
+## Prometheus
+
+The Prometheus sink URI format is
+
+```bash
+--sink=prometheus://host:port/namespace
+```
+
+If you omit host, e.g. `--sink=prometheus://:9187`, server listens on all interfaces and supplied port.
+If you omit namespace, default is `pgwatch`.
+
+## JSON file
+
+The JSON file sink URI format is
+
+```bash
+--sink=jsonfile:///path/to/file.json
+```
+
+It should be a valid file path where the JSON data will be written. If the file does not exist, it will be created.
+
+## gRPC
+
+The gRPC sink URI format is
+
+```bash
+--sink=grpc://user:pwd@host:port/?sslrootca=/path/to/ca.crt
+```
+
+The gRPC sink supports optional **authentication** and **TLS encryption** over the RPC channel.
+
+For authentication credentials can be provided using the `username:password` format in the URI string,
+e.g. `--sink=grpc://user:pwd@localhost:5000/`.
+If omitted, defaults to empty string for both username and password.
+The values are then forwarded to the gRPC server under the `"username"` and `"password"` fields in the metadata.
+
+Enable TLS by specifying a custom Certificate Authority (CA) file via the `sslrootca` URI parameter, e.g.
+`--sink=grpc://localhost:5000/?sslrootca=/home/user/ca.crt`
+If omitted, encryption is not used.
