{{< cloud-name >}} is a fully managed, hosted, multi-tenanted version of the
|
||||
InfluxDB 2.0 time series data platform.
|
||||
The core of {{< cloud-name "short" >}} is built on the foundation of the open source
|
||||
version of InfluxDB 2.0, which is much more than a database.
|
||||
It is a time series data platform that collects, stores, processes and visualizes metrics and events.
|
||||
|
||||
_See the differences between {{< cloud-name "short">}} and InfluxDB OSS
|
||||
[below](#differences-between-influxdb-cloud-and-influxdb-oss)._
|
||||
|
||||
## Start for free
|
||||
|
||||
Start using {{< cloud-name >}} at no cost with the [Free Plan](/v2.0/cloud/pricing-plans/#free-plan).
|
||||
Use it as much and as long as you like within the plan's rate-limits.
|
||||
Limits are designed to let you monitor 5-10 sensors, stacks or servers comfortably.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Collect and write data
|
||||
|
||||
Collect and write data to InfluxDB using the Telegraf plugins, the InfluxDB v2 API, the `influx`
|
||||
command line interface (CLI), the InfluxDB UI (the user interface for InfluxDB 2.0), or the InfluxDB v2 API client libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
### Use Telegraf
|
||||
|
||||
Use Telegraf to quickly write data to {{< cloud-name >}}.
|
||||
Create new Telegraf configurations automatically in the InfluxDB UI, or manually update an
|
||||
existing Telegraf configuration to send data to your {{< cloud-name "short" >}} instance.
|
||||
|
||||
For details, see [Automatically configure Telegraf](/v2.0/write-data/use-telegraf/auto-config/#create-a-telegraf-configuration)
|
||||
and [Manually update Telegraf configurations](/v2.0/write-data/use-telegraf/manual-config/).
|
||||
|
||||
### API, CLI, and client libraries
|
||||
|
||||
For information about using the InfluxDB v2 API, `influx` CLI, and client libraries to write data,
|
||||
see [Write data to InfluxDB](/v2.0/write-data/).
|
||||
|
||||
{{% note %}}
|
||||
#### InfluxDB Cloud instance endpoint
|
||||
When using Telegraf, the InfluxDB v2 API, the `influx` CLI, or the client libraries
|
||||
to interact with your {{< cloud-name "short" >}}, they each require the URL of your
|
||||
InfluxDB Cloud instance.
|
||||
See [InfluxDB Cloud URLs](/v2.0/cloud/urls/) for information about which URL to use
|
||||
and where to find it in your InfluxDB Cloud UI.
|
||||
{{% /note %}}
|
||||
|
||||
## Query and visualize data
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've set up {{< cloud-name "short" >}} to collect data, you can do the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- Query data using Flux, the UI, and the `influx` command line interface.
|
||||
See [Query data](/v2.0/query-data/).
|
||||
- Build custom dashboards to visualize your data.
|
||||
See [Visualize data](/v2.0/visualize-data/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Process data
|
||||
|
||||
Use InfluxDB tasks to process and downsample data. See [Process data](/v2.0/process-data/).
|
||||
|
||||
## View data usage
|
||||
|
||||
Once you're up and running with {{< cloud-name "short" >}}, [monitor your data usage in
|
||||
your {{< cloud-name "short" >}} UI](/v2.0/cloud/account-management/data-usage/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Differences between InfluxDB Cloud and InfluxDB OSS
|
||||
|
||||
{{< cloud-name >}} is API-compatible and functionally compatible with InfluxDB OSS 2.0.
|
||||
The primary differences between InfluxDB OSS 2.0 and InfluxDB Cloud 2.0 are:
|
||||
|
||||
- [InfluxDB scrapers](/v2.0/write-data/scrape-data/) that collect data from specified
|
||||
targets are not available in {{< cloud-name "short" >}}.
|
||||
- {{< cloud-name "short" >}} instances are currently limited to a single organization with a single user.
|
||||
- Retrieving data from a file based CSV source using the `file` parameter of the
|
||||
[`csv.from()`](/v2.0/reference/flux/functions/csv/from) function is not supported;
|
||||
however you can use raw CSV data with the `csv` parameter.
|
||||

||||

|

- **Free Plan (rate-limited)**: Skip downloading and installing InfluxDB 2.0 and

The Free Plan is designed for getting started with InfluxDB and for small hobby projects.
|
||||
- **Flux support**: [Flux](/v2.0/query-data/get-started/) is a standalone data

|
||||
It is the primary language for working with data within InfluxDB 2.0.
|
||||
Flux can be used with other data sources as well.
|
||||
This allows users to work with data where it resides.
|
||||
- **Unified API**: Everything in InfluxDB (ingest, query, storage, and visualization)
|
||||
is now accessible using a unified [InfluxDB v2 API](/v2.0/reference/api/) that
|
||||
enables seamless movement between open source and cloud.
|
||||
- **Integrated visualization and dashboards**: Based on the pioneering Chronograf project,
|
||||
the new user interface (InfluxDB UI) offers quick and effortless onboarding,
|
||||
richer user experiences, and significantly quicker results.
|
||||
- **Usage-based pricing**: The [The Usage-based Plan](/v2.0/cloud/pricing-plans/#usage-based-plan)
|
||||
offers more flexibility and ensures that you only pay for what you use. <!--To estimate your projected usage costs, use the [InfluxDB Cloud 2.0 pricing calculator](/v2.0/cloud/pricing-calculator/). -->
