InfluxDB 2.x support

[maxadamo]

Proposal: is there any plan to support InfluxDB 2.x ?

[chengshiwen]

InfluxDB Enterprise 2.x has not been released yet, and the next plan for InfluxDB Cluster is to adapt to InfluxDB Enterprise 1.9.x and InfluxDB Enterprise 1.10.x

hi @chengshiwen , I understand what you mean, but I believe that there will never be a public release of InfluxDB cluster 2.x.
IMO cluster 2.x already exists, but it's available only on the cloud (though they won't disclose the details, and they'll only tell you that they can guarantee 99% uptime)
I wonder if you can apply the existing replication mechanism to InfluxDB 2.x OpenSource.

p.s.: I'm an enterprise customer and I could try to raise it with them once again, but I expect them to be slippery and evasive as usual.

I believe that there will never be a public release of InfluxDB cluster 2.x.

Maybe so. I will release v1.8.10-c1.2.0 as soon as next two months to support anti-entropy feature. Then I will try to figure out the clustering mechanism of InfluxDB Cloud, which requires some work.

hopefully v2 compatible version is not too far away

will there be any integrated auto incremental backup scripts ?
and any idea what I can do to change this from a docker container to a LXC to run with proxmox ?

@MasterCATZ

Yes. InfluxDB Cluster v1.8.10-c1.2.0 will support (incremental) backup and restore like the official document:

• https://docs.influxdata.com/enterprise_influxdb/v1.8/administration/backup-and-restore/#backup-utility
• https://docs.influxdata.com/enterprise_influxdb/v1.8/administration/backup-and-restore/#restore-utility

and any idea what I can do to change this from a docker container to a LXC to run with proxmox ?

I will try to give a solution on the new minor version v1.8.10-c1.2.0, which will be released next one or two months.

[MasterCATZ]

ok thanks , I will give this a spin , I have a docker lxc running to run this docker container inside off anyhow , hopefully Home Assistant will not complain about downgrading the influxdb version

is the plan is stop for open source? @chengshiwen

The cluster plan for InfluxDB 1.x will continue to be open source and maintained. There is no plan for InfluxDB 2.x yet, so I will probably consider the cluster open source solution for 3.x directly.
