Man Apps + InfluxDB

[PGrasso]

Hello!

I'm going to migrate TWX Fun from 9.0 to 9.2.1 + InfluxDB 1.8.4. That's ok.

I have to install the Man Apps 9.1.1 as well, but the related InfluxDB version supported is 1.8.2.

Could you please help me to figure out if:

- is there any known issue using Man Apps 9.1.1 + InfluxDB 1.8.4?

Component	Current Version	New Version	Note
ThingWorx Foundation	9.0	9.2.1	Ok
ThingWorx App (Manufacturing Apps)	N/A	9.1.1	Ok
PostgreSQL	10	12.4	Ok
InfluxDB	1.7	TWX Found 9.2.1 -> InfluxDB 1.8.4 Man Apps 9.1.1    -> InfluxDB 1.8.2	?

Thanks in advance

@PGrasso ,

Thank you for submitting your question to the PTC Community.

Currently we only support P/SQL or MS/SQL for the persistence in Mfg Apps and Influx only as an additional persistence provider. For model storage, the only supported backends are the two indicated.

You can read up more on the database configuration steps here: https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/apps/r9.1/en/#page/thingworx_apps%2FInstallation_and_Setup%2Fimporting_the_thingworx_apps_extension.html%23wwID0EYTAK

Here is an older thread reading the use of Influx DB for Mfg Apps: https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Influx-DB-with-Manufacturing-Apps/td-p/618116
