Setup InfluxDB 2.x via Docker with Presets
For customers who do not have a timeseries or historian running, using a solution like InfluxDB can offer a very fast option to store collected data as a timeseries.
This would allow customers to for example deploy visualization on top of these data or use them for developing and teaching models or running other calculations.
See Documentation here: Setup InfluxDB 2.x
Description
Storing data collected by Litmus Edge DeviceHub in a Timeseries database is for many use cases an essential step. A Timeseries is optimised for storing and serving a series of data points index in time orders through associated pairs of time(s) and value(s).
One of the most prominent providers for a Timeseries database is Influxdata. For deployment of their InfluxDB 2.x, multiple options exist. The software can be installed in a data center as their OSS option, and it is available as SaaS. Another option is to deploy Influx DB 2.x via Docker, which is the subject of this solution.
Note: This solution can be deployed in any environment which runs Docker, which also includes Litmus Edge. But we recommend to deploy it outside Litmus Edge.
