# Map data sources to Cortex XCOR

> Map metrics data and query functions from Prometheus, Datadog, SignalFx, and Wavefront to Palo Alto Networks Cortex XCOR.

To display metrics and traces to users, Palo Alto Networks Cortex XCOR ingests data
through the use of
its own [Collector](/ingest/metrics-traces/collector). The Collector supports several metrics
formats.

Use this section to learn more about how to map other metrics formats' data and
functions to Cortex XCOR:

* [Prometheus](/ingest/metrics-traces/collector/mappings/prometheus/prometheus-recommendations) is
  the default for Cortex XCOR.
* [Datadog](/ingest/metrics-traces/collector/mappings/datadog) data can be imported into
  Cortex XCOR.
* [SignalFx](/ingest/metrics-traces/collector/mappings/signalfx) queries work differently than
  PromQL.
* [Wavefront](/ingest/metrics-traces/collector/mappings/wavefront) queries work differently than
  PromQL.
