InfluxDB CEO here. Those problems with corrupting data were with the 0.8 line of releases. But to be honest there are people that have been running that and 0.7 in production for almost a year without problems. Your mileage may vary, but we're not supporting any releases prior to the 0.9 line. For the 0.9 set of releases, this is what we're supporting going forward. There are some queries that cause the server to crash, but as far as I know, there are no problems that corrupt the database or cause data loss. We'll be releasing 0.9.1 tomorrow. Every 3 weeks after that we'll be releasing a new point release in the 0.9 line that will be a drop in replacement. Each one of these releases will fix bugs, improve performance, and add features on clustering (last part starting with 0.9.2). We're starting work on the on disk size with the 0.9.2 release cycle. If it's ready it'll be in that release in 3 weeks. Basically, it works now for some use cases and scales. Over the next 3 months we'll be adding features and optimizing to make it useful for larger scales and more use cases. Overall it's still alpha software, which is why we haven't put anything out there that's called a 1.0 release. However, we're trying very hard to not make any breaking API changes going forward between now and whenever we get to 1.0.
