Summary

InfluxDB 3.0 is a significant evolution of the InfluxDB product suite, with a new designation for all products powered by the InfluxDB IOx engine, including InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated. This cloud-based offering provides a fully managed solution for users with large data sets or customization needs, and offers features like private connectivity, not available in multi-tenant offerings. With a capacity-based pricing model, InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated is suitable for enterprise-grade solutions without infrastructure management, and leverages the Apache Arrow ecosystem to support a wider range of time series data types and use cases. The new product suite adds capabilities such as SQL support through DataFusion, lowering barriers for entry for SQL users, and allows users to utilize more value from their data by reading Parquet files natively. InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated is now available in all AWS regions except China, with plans to expand to Azure and Google Cloud in the second half of 2023. To get started, customers can contact sales representatives to work up a proof of concept and ensure they have the necessary capacity for their time series workloads.
