InfluxDB is increasingly being used in IoT solutions to store data from connected devices. Now it can also be used on IoT edge gateways as a data historian to analyze, visualize and eventually transmit aggregated IoT data up to a centralized server. In this article we’re going to look at three simple ways you can connect an instance of InfluxDB on your IoT Edge device to another instance of InfluxDB in the cloud.
