The Final Frontier: Using InfluxDB on the International Space Station

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) conducts long-duration missions of fundamental physics research on board the International Space Station (ISS). Its research includes searching for antimatter, investigating dark matter, and analyzing cosmic rays. The AMS collected over 200 billion cosmic ray events since its installation in 2011. Scientists at CERN Payload Operations and Control Center (POCC) in Geneva and the AMS Asia POCC study data from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer around the clock.

Sync Data from InfluxDB v2 to v3 With the Quix Template

If you’re an InfluxDB v2 user looking to use InfluxDB v3, you might be wondering how you can migrate data. We are still developing migration tooling. In the meantime, you can use the Quix Template to sync data from InfluxDB v2 to InfluxDB v3. Quix is a complete solution for building, deploying, and monitoring real-time applications and streaming data pipelines using Python abstracted over Kafka with DataFrames.

Infrastructure Monitoring Basics: Getting Started with Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Grafana

Ensuring the reliability and performance of applications and systems is vital to a healthy infrastructure. With the exponential growth of data, traditional monitoring approaches fall short of providing real-time insights and proactive problem-solving. That’s where InfluxDB comes into play, offering a robust and scalable solution for all your monitoring needs.
