InfluxDB is an open source database management system (DBMS), especially for time series (Engl. Timeseries). It is developed and distributed by the InfluxData company .

history

The software was developed by Errplane Inc. in 2012, the name of the company was changed to InfluxData, Inc. in December 2015. InfluxData is based in San Francisco .

technology

InfluxDB has a command language similar to SQL . Two TCP - ports are occupied, 8086for client / server communication with the InfluxDB HTTP API and 8088the RPC Service for data backup or restore. A time service is important for the operation of the database, e.g. B. via ntpd , so that the time is the same across all systems and the data can be compared.

InfluxData offers InfluxDB in three versions:

  • InfluxDB as open source as download
  • InfluxCloud on Amazon AWS as a payment model
  • InfluxEnterprise as a payment model with maintenance, cluster function, hardened system, access control
