Back in 2019, David Simmons created an awesome blog introducing LoRaWAN devices and The Things Network. He also showed you how easy it was to connect The Things Network V2 to InfluxDB. Since then, a few things have changed and I thought it was time to revisit the Things Network with a new project.
A nice dashboard can make or break your app. In this tutorial, you will learn how to make iOS and Android charts and data visualizations using React Native and the Victory Native charting library.

In 2015 I gave a brief talk at the Wireless LAN Professionals conference in Berlin about remotely troubleshooting client performance and Wi-Fi at scale. The solution I described then was rough and didn’t yet use a time series database (TSDB), but the requirements and goals are still valid and even more vital today.
A big part of modern software development involves working with APIs. While using 3rd party services can speed up development, moving data around and gluing things together can be pretty dull. Luckily, there are a growing number of tools that help deal with the boring stuff so you can focus on more interesting things. One of these tools is Pipedream.
InfluxData today announced accelerated momentum in Industrial Data and Internet of Things (IoT) driven by new customers, product enhancements and expanded industrial partnerships fueled by the growth of time series data. Customers including Tesla, Rolls Royce, Airbus, Teck, Graco and Graphite Energy are using InfluxDB to collect industrial data from devices and sensors.
One major challenge with decarbonization of industrial heat is converting the variability of renewable energy into the reliability required by process plants. Solar panels only generate energy when the sun is out, and wind turbines generate energy when the wind blows. Industry, however, has a consistent and persistent need for energy. Graphite Energy, based in Australia, recognized this disconnect and set out to create a solution to it.
Data – specifically time series data – continues to be the key ingredient for successful digital transformation. No matter the industry, time series data helps companies understand the activities and output of people, processes and technologies impacting their business. The effective management and use of time series data has emerged as the best path towards this goal.
Time series data differs from “normal” data in an interesting way. The essential characteristic is that the data’s primary point of reference is a timestamp showing at which point in time a sample of data was measured. Time series databases like InfluxDB are helpful for situations that involve this kind of data.
InfluxDB Cloud wins Best Use of the Cloud in the Internet of Things category SAN FRANCISCO, February 8, 2022 – InfluxData, creator of the leading time series platform InfluxDB, today announced InfluxDB Cloud was named a winner in the 2021-22 Cloud Awards category for Best Use of the Cloud in the Internet of Things. Now in its 10th year, the Cloud Awards recognize innovation and excellence in cloud computing among startups and global enterprises.
This article was written by Nicolas Bohorquez. Scroll below for the author’s picture and bio. Time series databases, like InfluxDB, index data by time. They are very efficient at recording constant streams of data, like server metrics, application monitoring data, sensor reports, and any data containing a timestamp. Data in a time series database is always written with the most recent data values but with the previous values not updated.
You just launched your application and it’s attracted more users than you were expecting. Your web server is bombarded with data. Now you need to know more about your users: what is the dominant device they’re using, and how long are they staying on the app? A time series database will help you answer these questions. It allows you to save data for a given point over a specified period of time, which gives you insight into what type of usage you’re getting and when.
