InfluxData, creator of time series database InfluxDB, today announced
the public beta of InfluxDB Cloud 2.0 – the most significant evolution
of the platform since the project started in 2013. With feedback from
open source users and customers, InfluxData strengthened and streamlined
the entire InfluxDB platform to improve the overall experience for
developers and companies looking to handle and harvest deep insights
from their time series datasets. InfluxData is inviting adventurous
developers to join
the beta and provide feedback that will help shape the future of
InfluxDB Cloud.
“Understanding how data changes over time is critical to creating
actionable insights that provide greater business value,” said Paul
Dix, co-founder and CTO of InfluxData. “This makes time series the
best abstraction for understanding data, which is the motivation behind
our purpose-built platform. We hope the developer community will join us
on this journey and join the InfluxDB Cloud 2.0 beta program. “
Major new features in InfluxDB Cloud 2.0, include:
-
Rate-limited FREE tier: Designed for getting started and the
hobbyist, it is even faster to get started than downloading the open
source product. -
Deeper insights with new Flux language support: Flux is a
powerful new scripting and query language – the first functional
language built specifically for time series data. Now it is possible
to do complex analytics and math across measurements. -
Single, unified API: Everything in InfluxDB (ingest, query,
storage, and visualization) is now accessible via a unified API,
enabling seamless movement between open source and cloud. -
Integrated visualization and dashboarding: The pioneering work
of the Chronograf project is now part of InfluxDB; enabling enhanced
onboarding and user experience without having to rely on additional
installs. -
Usage-based pricing: The new pricing model offers more
flexibility and ensures that customers are only paying for what they
need; it will automatically adjust for projects based on data needs.
InfluxData has more than 500 customers and over 200,000 servers running
InfluxDB that span three primary use cases: DevOps
monitoring, real-time
analytics, and IoT
monitoring. Any organization that has servers, VMs, containers,
applications, sensors, users or events to track can benefit from using
InfluxDB.
