Influxdb examples

InfluxDB is a popular time-series database. Learn how to query InfluxDB examples.

InfluxDB is an open-source, high-performance time series database designed to handle high write and query loads. It is specifically built to handle time-stamped data, making it ideal for applications that require the storage and retrieval of time series data, such as monitoring systems, sensor data, financial data, and IoT applications.

In this tutorial, I have installed Influxdb, you can refer here:
