Noah Crowley [InfluxData] | Using the Java Client Library | InfluxDays London 2019

InfluxDB 2.0 brings in support for many new client libraries. In this session, Noah will walk through how to use the new Java client library to access InfluxDB 2.0. InfluxDB comes with a new set of client libraries to allow you to insert time series data from your applications into the new InfluxDB 2.0. Specifically, Noah will share how to use the Java client library to insert data and query it in your applications.

Russ Savage [InfluxData] | Monitoring, Alerting, and Tasks as Code | InfluxDays London 2019

In this talk Russ will explore how to build tasks, alerting rules, and triggering events inside of InfluxDB 2.0 with the new Flux language. Russ will then showcase how to work this into a regular development flow by using command line tools for testing, source control as the source of truth, and testing against production data.

David Kaltschmidt [Grafana Labs] | Mixing metrics & Logs with Grafana + InfluxDB |

Grafana’s new Explore area is adding support for both metric and logs display for the Influx datasource. This allows you to quickly access your metrics, and as part of troubleshooting, bring up related logs. We’ll also look at the latest support for Flux inside Grafana.

Gianluca Arbezzano [InfluxData] | Kubernetes Monitoring with InfluxDB 2.0 & Flux | InfluxDays London

Gianluca will dig deep into how to monitor Kubernetes with InfluxDB using lessons learned from building and running InfluxDB Cloud on Kubernetes. He will cover what metrics should be collected, when to use push and pull metric collection, and the role that Prometheus plays in any K8s monitoring environment.

Paul Dix [InfluxData] | InfluxDB 2.0 and Flux - The Road Ahead | InfluxDays London 2019

Paul will continue to chart the road ahead by outlining the next phase of development for InfluxDB 2.0 and for Flux, InfluxData’s new data scripting and query language. He will discuss Flux’s role in multi-data source environments and explain how InfluxDB can be deployed in on-premise, multi-cloud, and hybrid environments.

Julius Volz [Prometheus] | Creating the PromQL Transpiler for Flux | InfluxDays London 2019

Flux is not only a new data scripting and query language — it is also a powerful data processing engine. This talk by Julius Volz will focus on how he worked with the InfluxData team to build PromQL support for the Flux engine. Hear about lessons learned from building the transpiler and recommendations on why and how to use PromQL and Flux. This talk will include a demo and will share the current project progress.
