Description

Due to the massive amount of time series managed at the edge and the disconnected nature of operations, a native time series database is necessary as part of EdgeX. MongoDB is not an optimal fit for huge amount of time series data.

The TSDB is useful for local storage and shall be easily interfaced with open source visualization tools (e.g. Grafana) and open source analytics platforms (e.g. Flink). 

InfluxDB is an open source TSDB distributed under MIT License which can be integrated as part of the solution.


Requirements

  • Ability to send data to a local remote InfluxDB instance
  • Ability to send data to a remote InfluxDB instance
  • Ability to send data to multiple InfluxDB instances (up to 3)

  • Modify the existing Core Data Service in order to rely on InfluxDB instead of MongoDB
