The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Why Time Series Databases Exist
From the floor of AWS re:Invent 2023, Influxers Jay Clifford and Zoe Steinkamp discuss why time series databases exist, the unique nature of time series workloads, and why you should use a purpose-built database for time series data.
OpenTelemetry 101 - Using OpenTelemetry with InfluxDB
From the floor of AWS re:Invent 2023, Influxer Jay Clifford provides a crash course in OpenTelemetry, tracing, and InfluxDB. Discover how you can use these technologies to get more insight from your time series data.
InfluxDB and AI - The Robotic Arm
From AWS re:Invent 2023, Influxer Jay Clifford discusses one of our booth demos as he sets it up. We track the movements and performance of a robotic arm as it sorts blocks and use AI to identify anomalies and trends. This is similar to many industrial IoT use cases.
A Guide to Predictive Maintenance & Machine Learning
Various economic pressures on businesses have created a focus on new and innovative ways to manage operational costs. At the same time, businesses are looking at using IT to help manage overall business costs and increase income—for example, by supporting remote working, and in many cases, enabling e-commerce to replace closed retail outlets. Management of infrastructure to minimize downtime has two major benefits: reductions in support and maintenance costs and improvements in service levels.
Grafana Dashboard Tutorial: How to Get Started
Grafana is an open-source web application for visualizing data. You can query your data, create visuals, and receive alerts to better understand what you have. Some people think of Grafana as a Kubernetes-only tool, but in reality, it’s simply a data visualization tool that became popular within the Kubernetes ecosystem, especially when combined with Prometheus. In this post, I’ll focus on a very specific part of Grafana: the dashboards.
Data lakes vs data warehouses explained
In the era of big data, choosing the right data storage solution is crucial for organizations to harness the power of their data. Understanding the differences and benefits of data lakes and data warehouses can help businesses make informed decisions on which option best suits their needs. In this blog post, we will explore data lakes and data warehouses, their architecture, and their key features, enabling you to make the right choice for your organization.
Getting Real-Time With InfluxDB
InfluxDB 3.0 is a quantum leap forward for time series databases. It boasts significant performance gains over previous version of InfluxDB, supports SQL queries natively, and integrates with all the tools you need to deliver real-time analytics for your devices, systems, and applications.
Mage for Anomaly detection with InfluxDB and Half-space Trees
Any existing InfluxDB user will notice that InfluxDB underwent a transformation with the release of InfluxDB 3.0. InfluxDB v3 provides 45x better write throughput and has 5-25x faster queries compared to previous versions of InfluxDB.
Bringing it all together: Speed, performance, and efficiency in InfluxDB 3.0
For most of the past year, we here at InfluxData focused on shipping the latest version of InfluxDB. To date, we launched three commercial products (InfluxDB Cloud Serverless, InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated, and InfluxDB Clustered), with more open source options on the way. All the while, we claimed that this latest version of InfluxDB surpasses anything we built before.
