THE database for time series

  • March 30, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
This is the database to go for if you have time series to store. Optimized for that functionality with no bling bling features that have no relevance. I like that you can communicate with it with HTTP directly. Very useful for web applications. Also, the tags system is very useful to annotate your data without adding redundancy in your database. I like also the storage engine that do not take so much disk space to store a big amount of data, which is very useful for use cases like Internet of Things where you have to store multiple values per points in very small ranges of times (every 30s or less).
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation states it as a CRud database, e.g. it is developed to Create and Read from it, but not really for Update or Delete, which is a logical thing to do in a time series database. But sometimes you want really to delete or update some points, which is not as simple as the word update/delete seems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we solved with Influx is to never have to deal with time. It is automatically managed in a very cool way. You just throw the values at it and its done. This allows the developer to focus more in their server logic and have more time and effort to fix that without worrying about the data he is working with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You just need to look at their roadmap, as Influx is still in development.
