## Introduction
916

1017
The chunks storage is a Cortex storage engine which stores each single time series into a separate object called _chunk_. Each chunk contains the samples for a given period (defaults to 12 hours). Chunks are then indexed by time range and labels, in order to provide a fast lookup across many (over millions) chunks. For this reason, the Cortex chunks storage requires two backend storages: a key-value store for the index and an object store for the chunks.
