Summary
In this chapter, we introduced the concept of InfluxDB, how to install InfluxDB, and set up the configuration.
We also learned InfluxDB query language, HTTP API, and client API. You saw how to use Kapacitor and Telegraf to monitor system logs with InfluxDB. Finally, we discussed InfluxDB operations.
InfluxDB is an excellent choice for time-series based data. It provides efficient collection of data with query flexibility. Multiple language supports provide easy integration with many enterprise applications. With the TSM data storage engine, InfluxDB provides high throughput batch read and write performance. More and more plugins continually add in the ecosystem component and make it easy to use in many real-world projects and become popular.
