For anyone that missed my #InfluxDays talk on Tuesday, here's a quick rundown of the big points that I think are worth highlighting. First, we're targeting @InfluxDB 2.0 open source GA release in late September!
The other big news is that we'll be pulling InfluxQL and the 1.x API into the 2.0 product (both cloud and open source). We're targeting an in-place upgrade that is as seamless as 1.7 to 1.8 for anyone wanting to move to @InfluxDB 2.0.
We'll be making performance improvements in Flux along the way. Some of our early work is yielding results > 10x because it's our first real effort to look at performance. From this point on, performance will be an ongoing stream of work.
After the 2.0 GA we'll be adding things like Flux user packages (think NPM, RubyGems, or Crates). Also, some enhancements to Flux with shortcut syntax to make simple queries much easier to express. And so many improvements to the UI, including an all new way to work with data.
Finally, we've started on some core database research. Our goal is to land improvements that enable infinite cardinality, tiered data storage (integration with object storage), real-time subscriptions, and operator defined push & pull replication topologies. Also, performance!
We have a ton of stuff in flight, but I expect the next 12 months to be very exciting for what we'll be landing in production ready @InfluxDB releases.
