Summary

At DevOpsDays Vancouver and Seattle, InfluxData attended the events to learn about the latest in DevOps and catch up with their community. The conferences were well-organized and provided opportunities for attendees to share their experiences with InfluxDB, a time series database that is increasingly being used as part of monitoring solutions for microservices. Many attendees were familiar with InfluxDB but had not used it recently, and the company's storage engineers have made significant improvements to the platform, making it performant and worth revisiting. The events also highlighted the commercial importance of DevOps and the need for tools like InfluxDB to ensure business continuity. InfluxData's booth received positive feedback from attendees who were impressed by the number of Telegraf plugins available and the company's ability to provide a hub for data from microservices.
