Time series data is data you want to https://www.influxdata.com/time-series-analysis-methods/?utm_source=vendor&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2023-02_spnsr-ctn_cleaning-interpreting-metrics_tns and https://www.influxdata.com/solutions/application-performance-monitoring-apm/?utm_source=vendor&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2023-02_spnsr-ctn_cleaning-interpreting-metrics_tns over time.
