Optimize your InfluxDB cluster

The goal of this phase of the installation process is to simulate a production-like workload against your InfluxDB cluster and make changes to optimize your cluster for your workload.

Depending on your requirements, this phase is likely to take the longest of all the installation phases.

Identify performance requirements

Before beginning this process, we recommend identifying performance requirements and goals–for example:

  • Writes per second
  • Query concurrency
  • Query response time

This gives specific metrics to test for and make adjustments towards. Consult with InfluxData support as you make changes to meet these requirements and goals.
