Edge data is exploding, but organizations’ struggles to pool the data together for where and when its developers, data scientists and other DevOps team members need it are among the challenges it poses. As a potential solution, InfluxData’s Edge Data Replication enables developers to collect, store and analyze high-precision time series data in InfluxDB at the edge — while replicating all or subsets of this data into InfluxDB Cloud — the company says.

“Edge Data Replication is our first offering built specifically to orient our offerings into a vertically integrated stack — a solution where it’s not edge or datacenter or cloud, but one where you capture, store and analyze your time series data where it makes the most sense for you and your use cases,” https://www.linkedin.com/in/industrialdata InfluxData’s director of IoT and Emerging Technologies, told The New Stack. Edge Data Replication is our solution for the current InfluxDB 2 generation, but as we bring IOx to the market, first in the cloud, and then at the edge, customers will be able to leverage even more conveniences and capabilities for truly hybrid and distributed time series applications.” Without Edge Data Replication, DevOps teams must otherwise invest in queues, brokers, observability-pipeline systems and other tools or build them themselves in order to orchestrate their time series data pipelines, Gilmore said.
