The current version still has the problem that if you do a massive SELECT then it will fill up memory until the process gets killed. In the future we'll give controls to limit how much memory a query can take. I think it's common

We don't have the TCP listener wired up yet, but it's on the roadmap. Thanks for bringing it up, I'll try to get it prioritized for sometime in the next few months.

If you found something else that works for you, that's great. I'm sorry that InfluxDB didn't work for you when you tried it, but we'll continue to improve and build. My feeling is that this release is a significant miles

I'm not quite sure what you're doing. If you have that level of hardware I don't know why you're running out of memory. Our tests with 100B points split across 1M series ran on much more modest hardware than that and did

We just have to close those out. Those are all fixed in the release we have today.

Not sure what issues you're seeing, but we have people running this in production at significant scale. One of the issues you linked to was for 0.9.6. Others were there because they had super high tag cardinality and not enough memory

InfluxDB supports timestamps down to the nanosecond. We recommend that you only use the precision you need, since you'll get better compression that way.

Have a look at this release. The write performance is massively better than it was. We did tests writing up to 100B points against a single server. The next release will focus on improving query performance, but this one still works for man

Am I correct in assuming that you got to the 20MB/sec number by taking our 3 bytes per point number times the number of data points? The input is actually much higher than that. Data points over the network look like this: cpu_idle,hos

Thanks :). He talks about doing kill nines on the process while doing a bunch of writes, trying to corrupt the DB, and perf testing. In addition to a little bit of talk about what came before and some lessons learned.

fsyncs happen on every write. They're durable. This release may be 100x faster than our previous release, but it's also a competitor with other solutions. We haven't run any comparisons vs. other solutions, but we will do tha

Yeah, histograms need to be added back in. I just replied to the other poster with a bit more info too. derivative and non_negative_derivative are in the current release. Hopefully 0.10.0 will convince you to come back over :)

Ok thanks. Hopefully we'll be able to get to those soon. We have some significant work happening in the query engine that should make it easier to add in new functions (join included). We'll also be writing up instructions for how

We're actively hiring for database engineers right now. Backups are coming in the next release. Which features from 0.8 aren't there? TSM is an effort, but not never ending. We just refuse to put it out there until we've done

I think it's similar because you're building graphs for a dashboard. Most of those UIs I've seen end up looking very similar. Our longer term goal with Chronograf is that it'll help with doing ad-hoc data exploration and

InfluxDB is designed to either store data for some given period of time (a retention policy) or forever, whichever you need. The ephemeral nature of time series is more about the fact that metadata and the raw data are constantly changing.

We didn't fork Grafana. Chronograf is a completely new product built from the ground up. They don't use the same JavaScript technologies. Chronograf uses React and Dygraphs. I believe Grafana uses Angular and Flot. We're fans

Thanks! We'll definitely be open sourcing some things from Chronograf and it's free to use. We removed the registration part of it with the release we cut today. We're fans of Bosun and actually contributed code to the projec
