System Requirements
Operating system
InfluxDB 3 Core runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
Object storage
A key feature of InfluxDB 3 is its use of object storage to store time series data in Apache Parquet format. You can choose to store these files on your local file system, however, we recommend using an object store for the best overall performance. InfluxDB 3 Core natively supports Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage. You can also use many local object storage implementations that provide an S3-compatible API, such as Minio.
Quick install
Use the InfluxDB 3 quick install script to install InfluxDB 3 Core on Linux and macOS.
If using Windows, download the InfluxDB 3 Core Windows binary.
