Cardinality in InfluxDB Cloud
Runaway cardinality can be a problem when working with time series data. This video explains what cardinality is, why runaway cardinality is an issue, and how to begin addressing runaway cardinality if you experience it.
Data Retention
Time series data isn't like other types of data. Instead of constantly updating a record with new info, it is typical to purge highly granular data that is no longer useful. With InfluxDB, you can automate this process using retention policies.
What is Time Series?
Time series data is all around us. Discover the basic characteristics of time series data and how to use it.
Pivoting InfluxDB Series Data into Relational Layouts
Most developers are more familiar with the shape of relational data than the shape of time series data. InfluxDB stores time series data in such a way to maximize its effectiveness. As developers get more familiar with time series data, it may be helpful to view time series data in a relational layout. Fortunately, Flux language makes it easy to present your time series data the way that's useful for you.

TL;DR InfluxDB Tech Tips: Converting InfluxQL Queries to Flux Queries
If you’re a 1.x user of InfluxDB, you’re most likely more familiar with InfluxQL than you are with Flux. To gain a deep understanding of Flux, it’s important to understand: However, you can still use Flux without studying those topics. In this TL;DR, we’ll convert common InfluxQL queries into Flux and identify patterns between the two languages to help you get started using Flux more easily if you come from a InfluxQL or SQL background.
Building Your Security Analytics Use Cases
It’s time again for another meeting with senior leadership. You know that they will ask you the hard questions, like “how do you know that your detection and response times are ‘good enough’?” You think you’re doing a good job securing the organization. You haven’t had a security incident yet. At the same time, you also know that you have no way to prove your approach to security is working. You’re reading your threat intelligence feeds.
