Question

storing data tables in influxdb

Hi,

I am planning to shift from Postgres to influxdb however I'm not sure how data tables will be stored as there is no documentation available. Is there any walk around to do this.

 

thanks

Hi @AA_9993205.

 

Can you explain your use case?  Influxdb is used for streams and value streams, whereas datatables are used for more static data.  If we had a better understanding of your needs, we could possibly suggest an alternative.  For example, you could set up your data table in a different database via jdbc as opposed to the persistence provider you're using for ThingWorx.

 

Regards.
