Well, you’ve done it. You decided to take the plunge with InfluxDB. While vast and diverse possibilities await, you may have more short-term concerns. Namely: now what? Getting started looks different for everyone because no two users are doing the exact same thing. This post is primarily aimed at InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated and InfluxDB Clustered users (or any other products that include support agreements. You can chat with one of our sales folks if you have questions about that).

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) conducts long-duration missions of fundamental physics research on board the International Space Station (ISS). Its research includes searching for antimatter, investigating dark matter, and analyzing cosmic rays. The AMS collected over 200 billion cosmic ray events since its installation in 2011. Scientists at CERN Payload Operations and Control Center (POCC) in Geneva and the AMS Asia POCC study data from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer around the clock.
If you’re an InfluxDB v2 user looking to use InfluxDB v3, you might be wondering how you can migrate data. We are still developing migration tooling. In the meantime, you can use the Quix Template to sync data from InfluxDB v2 to InfluxDB v3. Quix is a complete solution for building, deploying, and monitoring real-time applications and streaming data pipelines using Python abstracted over Kafka with DataFrames.

Ensuring the reliability and performance of applications and systems is vital to a healthy infrastructure. With the exponential growth of data, traditional monitoring approaches fall short of providing real-time insights and proactive problem-solving. That’s where InfluxDB comes into play, offering a robust and scalable solution for all your monitoring needs.
Integrating time series data with the power of vector databases opens up a new frontier for analytics and machine learning applications. Time series data, characterized by its sequential order and timestamps, is pivotal in monitoring and forecasting across various domains, from financial markets to IoT devices. InfluxDB, a leading time series database, excels in handling such data with high efficiency and scalability.

In the rapidly changing world of technology, effective monitoring is critical for maintaining your infrastructure and ensuring it performs effectively. While traditional monitoring methods are effective, they can fall short as systems scale and become more dynamic and complex. This article aims to bridge the gap by introducing software engineers to the power of machine learning (ML) in infrastructure monitoring, outlining not just the ‘how’ but the ‘why’ of its application.

It's your data. You should be able to do whatever you want with it. However, vendor lock-in can trap your data in a single solution, making it extremely difficult to switch to something that better meets your needs. When your data goes in, but doesn't come out—that's a data roach motel. Open source technologies, and solutions built with open source tools, enable organizations to take control of their data, giving them the freedom to put it into and take it out of whatever databases or solutions they see fit.

Companies are committed to delivering on higher levels of customer satisfaction for their online services. Unfortunately, many organizations trying to support these initiatives take an interrupt-driven approach where they scramble to fix things when they break. However, to manage to these high levels of SLAs, you should take a structured approach in order to reduce the amount of unscheduled downtime by proactively monitoring and managing your systems.
