Telegraf is InfluxData’s open source agent for collecting metrics, and it’s used everywhere. In this quick overview, Product Manager Scott Anderson shares what makes it stand out, from more than 5 billion downloads to a huge plugin ecosystem with 400+ integrations. It’s also built by a strong community, with over 1,300 contributors and thousands of GitHub stars. That momentum is a big part of why Telegraf keeps growing.

InfluxDB 3 on Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB now scales to 15-node clusters, unlocking higher ingestion, greater query concurrency, and real-time performance at scale. In this video, PM Pete Barnett breaks down what this means for high-resolution, high-velocity workloads, and how you can scale from Core to Enterprise with zero downtime or data migration.

In this video, Senior Developer Advocate Cole Bowden walks you through the key similarities and differences that exist in InfluxDB 3 Core and InfluxDB 3 Enterprise. As an open source offering, Core thrives at data collection on the edge and providing real-time insights into fresh data, while Enterprise includes support, compaction for performant historical analysis over wide windows, better scaling and security for enterprise-scale operations.

In this video, we walk you through setting up and getting started with the InfluxDB Explorer UI - a convenient, easy way to query and explore your data. This walks you through installation and connecting with the Explorer UI, as well as loading data, running queries, and setting up a basic dashboard.

In this video, we go over getting started with InfluxDB, including downloading, installing, writing, and reading data with a couple different clients.

Explorer is the new UI for InfluxDB 3 Core (open source) and Enterprise. It brings everything into one place: ingesting data, querying, visualizing, and managing your database. It’s designed to remove friction: fewer tools, less context switching, faster feedback.

InfluxDB 3 Enterprise uses a cloud-native, diskless architecture to eliminate traditional storage limits. Its stateless design simplifies operations, delivers instant failover with zero data loss, and lets you scale compute and storage independently to petabyte levels without re-architecting your system.

Dive into InfluxDB 3 Core, an open source, high-speed recent-data engine. InfluxDB 3 Core is an open source, high-performance real-time data engine (MIT/Apache 2 licensed). It’s built for real-time monitoring, edge data collection and transformation, sensor alerting, and streaming analytics with simplicity and speed.

The Distinct Value Cache in InfluxDB 3 speeds up metadata queries and tag value lookups for faster, more responsive UIs. The Distinct Value Cache in InfluxDB 3 delivers sub-30 ms lookups for tag values and series metadata, making exploratory queries and UI dropdowns quick and responsive. By reducing latency on these common operations, it allows developers to build real-time monitoring and analytics tools without extra complexity.

InfluxDB 3 Enterprise is engineered for performance and designed for flexibility, delivering high-scale, production-ready time series data management with operational simplicity. InfluxDB 3 Enterprise is built on a cloud-native, diskless architecture that removes the limits of traditional storage. It’s easy to deploy, scales effortlessly, and eliminates the complexity of managing clusters so you can deploy your way and meet the unique demands of your environment.
