InfluxDB CEO here. The data model for 0.9.0 should map up nicely with what you're trying to do. It supports measurement names, and tags. It would be great to work together to have InfluxDB as another option (other than OpenTSDB) for long term storage of metrics data.
- jrv 12y agoHey Paul, it'd be great to work together! Although long-term storage isn't a SoundCloud priority right now (meaning it's going to be more of a free-time project with less time allocated), it's definitely important for many others and it would be great to have. I think we should start with Prometheus->InfluxDB write support first, and then approach the more complicated problem of reading back from InfluxDB through Prometheus. What's the best place to get informed about the new 0.9.0 data model?
- jrv 12y agoOk, I found http://influxdb.com/blog/2014/12/08/clustering_tags_and_enhancements_in_0_9_0.html http://influxdb.com/blog/2014/12/08/clustering_tags_and_enha.... That all sounds very promising!
- jrv 12y agoAfter reading http://influxdb.com/blog/2014/12/08/clustering_tags_and_enhancements_in_0_9_0.html http://influxdb.com/blog/2014/12/08/clustering_tags_and_enha..., I'm not completely clear on what "tags" mean. Are they single-word names, or are they conceptually key=value pairs like labels in Prometheus or tags in OpenTSDB? EDIT: found https://github.com/influxdb/influxdb/pull/1059 https://github.com/influxdb/influxdb/pull/1059. Ok, does seem like tags mean key=value pairs.
