While relational database management systems (RDBMS) are efficient with storing tables, columns, and primary keys in a spreadsheet architecture, they become inefficient when there’s a lot of data input received over a long period of time. Databases designed specifically to store time series data are known as time series databases (TSDB). For example, an RDBMS might look like this.
Live and on-demand trainings simplify application building for faster Time to Awesome™ SAN FRANCISCO – March 9, 2022 – InfluxData, creator of the leading time series platform InfluxDB, today announced the launch of InfluxDB University (InfluxDB U), an online education platform for customers and developers working with time series data.
At InfluxData, it’s no surprise that we are passionate about time series data. Our team is committed to helping our community understand its capabilities and sharing easier and more efficient ways of working with InfluxDB, Telegraf and Flux. Our end goal is always to deliver faster Time to Awesome™ for our users. To this end, we’re excited to announce the launch of InfluxDB University.
As a strictly typed language, Flux protects you from a lot of potential runtime failures. However, if you don’t know the column types on the data you’re querying, you might encounter some annoying errors. Suppose you have a bucket that receives regular writes from multiple different streams, and you want to write a task to downsample a measurement from that bucket into another bucket.
Back in 2019, David Simmons created an awesome blog introducing LoRaWAN devices and The Things Network. He also showed you how easy it was to connect The Things Network V2 to InfluxDB. Since then, a few things have changed and I thought it was time to revisit the Things Network with a new project.
A nice dashboard can make or break your app. In this tutorial, you will learn how to make iOS and Android charts and data visualizations using React Native and the Victory Native charting library.

In 2015 I gave a brief talk at the Wireless LAN Professionals conference in Berlin about remotely troubleshooting client performance and Wi-Fi at scale. The solution I described then was rough and didn’t yet use a time series database (TSDB), but the requirements and goals are still valid and even more vital today.
A big part of modern software development involves working with APIs. While using 3rd party services can speed up development, moving data around and gluing things together can be pretty dull. Luckily, there are a growing number of tools that help deal with the boring stuff so you can focus on more interesting things. One of these tools is Pipedream.
InfluxData today announced accelerated momentum in Industrial Data and Internet of Things (IoT) driven by new customers, product enhancements and expanded industrial partnerships fueled by the growth of time series data. Customers including Tesla, Rolls Royce, Airbus, Teck, Graco and Graphite Energy are using InfluxDB to collect industrial data from devices and sensors.
One major challenge with decarbonization of industrial heat is converting the variability of renewable energy into the reliability required by process plants. Solar panels only generate energy when the sun is out, and wind turbines generate energy when the wind blows. Industry, however, has a consistent and persistent need for energy. Graphite Energy, based in Australia, recognized this disconnect and set out to create a solution to it.
