Summary

In the latest release of InfluxDB, version 1.1, several new features and syntax developments were introduced, including syntax consolidation for SHOW queries, which now support the ON <database_name> clause and are optional. This change ensures consistency in query syntax across different queries. Additionally, two new functions were added: SAMPLE(), which returns a random sample of N points from specified data, and CUMULATIVE_SUM(), which calculates the cumulative sum of consecutive field values. These updates aim to improve performance, stability, and user experience. The release also includes other improvements and features, such as downloads for the TICK-stack, cloud deployment options, and a call to action for users to share their InfluxDB success stories.
