Beta expectations and recommendations

System Requirements

Operating system

InfluxDB 3 Enterprise 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. Performance on your local filesystem will likely be better, but object storage has the advantage of not running out of space and being accessible by other systems over the network. InfluxDB 3 Enterprise 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 Enterprise on Linux and macOS.

  1. Use the following command to download and install the appropriate InfluxDB 3 Enterprise package on your local machine:

    curl -O https://www.influxdata.com/d/install_influxdb3.sh \
    && sh install_influxdb3.sh enterprise
    
    • Copy
    • Fill window
  2. Verify that installation completed successfully:

    influxdb3 --version
    
    • Copy
    • Fill window

influxdb3 not found

If your system can’t locate your influxdb3 binary, source your current shell configuration file (.bashrc, .zshrc, etc.).

source ~/.bashrc
  • Copy
  • Fill window
source ~/.zshrc
  • Copy
  • Fill window
