About InfluxDB

InfluxDB is an open-source time series data platform that provides a scalable and reliable solution for storing and querying large volumes of time-stamped data. The company develops InfluxDB as part of its mission to enable users to collect, process, and analyze real-time data easily and efficiently.

One of the key offerings from InfluxDB is their custom scripting and query language called Flux. Although Flux was a significant development in the InfluxDB 2.0 release, it has been noticeably absent from the description of InfluxDB 3.0. The company recognized that Flux posed an adoption challenge for some users, despite its powerful capabilities.

However, InfluxDB continues to support both the 1.x and 2.x versions of their software for their customers. With InfluxDB 3.0, users can interact with the database in a similar way as they did with InfluxDB 1.x using the InfluxQL query capability. InfluxDB 3.0 focuses on delivering most of the functionality present in the earlier versions and may add separate processes at a later date for implementing the remaining 2.x API.

Meanwhile, InfluxDB has made Flux an open-source project under a permissive license (GitHub: InfluxCommunity/flux). They also created a community fork of Flux where developers can self-organize and drive the project forward independently from InfluxDB's code review process. Several community members are already working on potential paths for Flux development, and those interested in contributing to this effort are encouraged to get involved.
