Install InfluxDB
前言
InfluxDB 是一款高性能的时序数据库
InfluxDB is a time series database built from the ground up to handle high write and query loads. It is the second piece of the TICK stack. InfluxDB is meant to be used as a backing store for any use case involving large amounts of timestamped data, including DevOps monitoring, application metrics, IoT sensor data, and real-time analytics
InfluxDB 见长于标量的时序存储
当前最主要的应用场景有以下两个方面
- 监控数据
- IoT 数据流存储
这两方面的特性 Elasticsearch 也有覆盖，那它们两者的区别是什么呢，可以参考下面的文章
InfluxDB vs. Elasticsearch for Time Series Data & Metrics Benchmark
总体来讲，在日志与全文检索方面 Elasticsearch 还是无可匹敌的，但是在纯标量的存储检索压缩和响应方面 InfluxDB 会有更明显的优势，所以事实上各有侧重
同时，类似于 Elasticsearch 的 ELK 技术栈，InfluxDB 也有一套 TICK 技术栈
这里分享一下 InfluxDB 的安装方法
Tip: 当前的版本为 InfluxDB v1.4.3

influx 命令
[root@much ~]# influx --help
Usage of influx:
-version
Display the version and exit.
-host 'host name'
Host to connect to.
-port 'port #'
Port to connect to.
-socket 'unix domain socket'
Unix socket to connect to.
-database 'database name'
Database to connect to the server.
-password 'password'
Password to connect to the server. Leaving blank will prompt for password (--password '').
-username 'username'
Username to connect to the server.
-ssl
Use https for requests.
-unsafeSsl
Set this when connecting to the cluster using https and not use SSL verification.
-execute 'command'
Execute command and quit.
-format 'json|csv|column'
Format specifies the format of the server responses: json, csv, or column.
-precision 'rfc3339|h|m|s|ms|u|ns'
Precision specifies the format of the timestamp: rfc3339, h, m, s, ms, u or ns.
-consistency 'any|one|quorum|all'
Set write consistency level: any, one, quorum, or all
-pretty
Turns on pretty print for the json format.
-import
Import a previous database export from file
-pps
How many points per second the import will allow. By default it is zero and will not throttle importing.
-path
Path to file to import
-compressed
Set to true if the import file is compressed
Examples:
# Use influx in a non-interactive mode to query the database "metrics" and pretty print json:
$ influx -database 'metrics' -execute 'select * from cpu' -format 'json' -pretty
# Connect to a specific database on startup and set database context:
$ influx -database 'metrics' -host 'localhost' -port '8086'
[root@much ~]#连接数据库
[root@much ~]# influx -precision rfc3339
Connected to http://localhost:8086 version 1.4.2
InfluxDB shell version: 1.4.2
> help
Usage:
connect <host:port> connects to another node specified by host:port
auth prompts for username and password
pretty toggles pretty print for the json format
chunked turns on chunked responses from server
chunk size <size> sets the size of the chunked responses. Set to 0 to reset to the default chunked size
use <db_name> sets current database
format <format> specifies the format of the server responses: json, csv, or column
precision <format> specifies the format of the timestamp: rfc3339, h, m, s, ms, u or ns
consistency <level> sets write consistency level: any, one, quorum, or all
history displays command history
settings outputs the current settings for the shell
clear clears settings such as database or retention policy. run 'clear' for help
exit/quit/ctrl+d quits the influx shell
show databases show database names
show series show series information
show measurements show measurement information
show tag keys show tag key information
show field keys show field key information
A full list of influxql commands can be found at:
https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/latest/query_language/spec/
>-precision rfc3339 是在指时间格式
默认会连接 http://localhost:8086

influxdb 是一个非常简洁的数据库，从目录结构就可以看出来，使用也很简单，从命令集就可以看出来
简单是高效的基础
并且随着大数据的进一步发展，可以预见，此类时序数据库会越来越受到欢迎
