COOL WAYS TO GET STARTED Join us for a live InfluxDB training to learn how to easily ingest at scale in a matter of seconds to help you build powerful time-series-based applications. Join our 45-minute demos with experts who will showcase key InfluxDB features and answer questions live from the audience. After attending this training, attendees will be able to: Use sample data sets to try out various visualization options Utilize the available data ingestion methods to construct a data pipeline to InfluxDB Leverage Notebooks to collaborate with team members Gain best practices for InfluxDB, Telegraf and Flux

Data Ingestion
• Telegraf
• Plugin-driven server agent for collecting and
sending metrics and events from databases,
systems, and IoT sensors.
• Client libraries
• Language-specific packages that integrate
with the InfluxDB 2.0 API and support both
InfluxDB 1.8+ and InfluxDB 2.0
• API/CLI

InfluxDB API
• Organization
• Workspace for a group of users. All dashboards,
tasks, buckets, members, etc., belong to an
organization.
• Buckets
• Named location where time series data is stored.
All buckets have a retention period, a duration of
time that each data point persists.
• API Token
• Ensure secure interaction between users and
data. A token belongs to an organization and
identifies InfluxDB permissions within the
organization.

Data Separation
• Account/Org
• Complete separation of all users, buckets,
and tokens.
• Bucket
• Broadest level of separation given data is
isolated from any other bucket.
• Access control is restricted at token level
and each bucket is represented by distinct
name/ID.
• Schema
• Leveraging a tag to create a unique index
