InfluxDB Inventors

Ockam integrates with InfluxDB tokens and provides an easy mechanism to
precisely control which devices are authorized to report which measurements.
Unique, short lived, InfluxDB tokens can be easily leased to each
cryptographically authenticated device at the edge. This makes rotation and
revocation of tokens simple and provides easy management of permissions at
scale.
Ockam integrates with Telegraf as an ExecD plugin to provide tools that
bootstrap trusted secure channels between thousands of Telegraf agents and
InfluxDB. These mutually authenticated secure channels can remain secure for
years using the built-in leasing/rotation protocols.
