InfluxDB 1.0, the open source time series database, has been released after nearly three years of development. The release marks a significant milestone for the company and its users, with tens of thousands of organizations worldwide relying on InfluxDB to manage their time-series data across various industries such as network infrastructure, security, container infrastructure, agriculture, scientific experiments, user analytics, business intelligence, home automation, and more. The database was initially conceived in 2013 while working on a SaaS application called Errplane, which aimed to provide real-time metrics and monitoring. Over the years, InfluxDB has evolved through various iterations, including the development of new open-source projects such as Telegraf, Kapacitor, and Chronograf. The 1.0 release brings stability and compatibility guarantees for the API and storage format, with plans to continue iterating on improvements in future releases. Users can expect continued work on solving limitations such as high cardinality, intelligent rules for automatic rollups, and query language functionality like performing calculations across multiple measurements.
