New in Grafana 7.1: Gain new data insights with InfluxDB and Flux query support

Grafana 7.1 introduces native support for InfluxDB's Flux query language, enabling users to gain enriched insights from time series datasets by combining multiple data sources. This integration facilitates complex queries and allows for real-time data correlation across different data types, enhancing observability and eliminating inefficiencies associated with siloed data. Flux, which offers a minimal learning curve, supports advanced features such as joins, math functions across measurements, and integration with various databases, allowing users to create sophisticated and enriched visualizations. Enterprises like IBM utilize this integration to monitor and optimize performance data in large-scale production environments, demonstrating the practical application of Grafana and InfluxDB's capabilities. The update allows users to transition smoothly from InfluxQL to Flux, while Grafana's built-in query builder makes it straightforward to create powerful dashboard charts.
