Best practices for writing data
The following articles walk through recommendations and best practices for writing data to InfluxDB.
Optimize writes to InfluxDB
Simple tips to optimize performance and system overhead when writing data to InfluxDB.
Handle duplicate data points
InfluxDB identifies unique data points by their measurement, tag set, and timestamp. This article discusses methods for preserving data from two points with a common measurement, tag set, and timestamp but a different field set.
InfluxDB schema design
Design your schema for simpler and more performant queries.
Resolve high series cardinality
Reduce high series cardinality in InfluxDB. If reads and writes to InfluxDB have started to slow down, you may have high series cardinality. Find the source of high cardinality and adjust your schema to resolve high cardinality issues.
