Max Measurements/Tables in Influx DB

Hi, 

 

I am migrating the Time-Series data from PostgreSQL to InfluxDB. In InfluxDB, there will be a separate measurement for each Thing in Thingworx, whereas in Postgres, all time-series data is stored in the public schema.value_stream table. 

 

Now I do have around 1400 Things, each thing represents a device, actually, as per the use case.

 

My Quick question is: is there a limit on the number of Measurements in a single InfluxDB?

 

Thingworx Version: 9.1

 

Thanks,

Hi @pshashipreetham,

 

Reply by AI: InfluxDB does not impose a hard limit on the number of measurements per database, so having 1,400 measurements (one per Thing) is technically supported.
