OpenTSDB |
InfluxDB supports the OpenTSDB "telnet" protocol. When OpenTSDB support is enabled, InfluxDB can act as a drop-in replacement for your OpenTSDB system.
An example input point, and how it is processed, is shown below.
put sys.cpu.user 1356998400 42.5 host=webserver01 cpu=0
When InfluxDB receives this data, a point is written to the database.
The point's Measurement is sys.cpu.user
, the timestamp is 1356998400
, and the value is 42.5
.
The point is also tagged with host=webserver01
and cpu=0
.
Tags allow fast and efficient queries to be performed on your data.
To learn more about enabling OpenTSDB support, check the example configuration file.
