CBT Nuggets trainer Trevor Sullivan explains InfluxDB and how you can use it to store time-series data.

When talking about data storage, it's important to recognize different database platforms that exist for different types of data you're storing. For example there's the highly relational data seen in graph database engines that rely on nodes and relationships between those nodes. Also, there are relational databases that rely on tables and rows. There are also NoSQL databases — these basically use a table to contain self-describing documents.

InfluxDB is a database engine all its own — it's an open source time-series database engine. Time-series database engines are ideal for graphing data over a period of time. There are various use cases for time-series data, but an administrator or engineer might be particularly interested in how it can help store systems metrics information. Watch as Trevor explains when InfluxDB is the right database resource for you.
