Recreating Daft Punk's Something About Us An in-depth, personal journey recreating Daft Punk’s “Something About Us” in Ableton Live 12—track by track. From synths to talkbox guitars, a nostalgic dive into French Touch culture, sound design, a...

Enjoyed reading this post on recreating Daft Punk's Something About Us. The description of the French Touch genre was particularly good. "Its distinct sound is the product of a generation raised on analog dreams of the digital future." Such a great line. thoughts-and-things.ghost.io/recreating-d...

I'll be at #GrafanaCON presenting on #InfluxDB 3 Core, the new open source release! 10 years since I presented at the very first one in NYC on the new storage engine we were building at the time (TSM for v1).

InfluxDB 3 Core and Enterprise Are Now in Beta InfluxDB 3 Core, our new open source product licensed under MIT/Apache 2, and InfluxDB 3 Enterprise are now in beta. In this post, I’ll highlight what’s changed since alpha, what to expect from the be...

It's a big day @influxdb.com, we're announcing the beta of InfluxDB 3 Core and Enterprise! This means that APIs are now stable and in-place upgrades with all data from here to GA will be supported. More details here: www.influxdata.com/blog/influxd...

If you're out on bail you should join us today because this is going to be an excellent talk. Jeff has worked on databases at Google since 2005 (including F1, Mesa, Dremel). Talk is based on their VLDB'24 paper: research.google/pubs/sql-has...

Paul Dix @pauldix.bsky.social co-founder & CTO of InfluxData @influxdb.com gets real about InfluxDB 3.0, licensing, and the future of time series databases.

We realize that not all use cases will fit into what InfluxDB Core is able to do. It is meant to be scoped for data collection, processing, shipping, and query against short time ranges. It is constrained to this by technical limitations and architectural design.

You can configure the file limit to whatever you want it to be. 7 days is 980 files. If you have enough RAM, it'll work. It just won't be very fast. If that capability is vital to your use case, then you should consider another solution or becoming a customer of InfluxDB 3 Enterprise.

#InfluxDB 3 Core can now receive data from any time period and you'll be able to query any point in time. However, there is still a technical limitation to the range of time a single query will be able to process. I cover the technical details in the post.

Announcing InfluxDB 3 Enterprise free for at-home use and an update on InfluxDB 3 Core’s 72-hour limitation Announcing the alpha release of InfluxDB 3 Core and InfluxDB 3 Enterprise.

After a couple weeks of feedback on the #InfluxDB 3 alpha, we're announcing InfluxDB 3 Enterprise free for at-home use and an update on InfluxDB 3 Core’s 72-hour limitation: www.influxdata.com/blog/influxd...

We’ll be supporting v2 with security updates for quite some time. Years. We don’t currently have an EOL planned or set.

ah yes, sorry, busy couple of weeks. Responding now!

Is your use case at work or home? We're looking at a free tier for Enterprise, which doesn't have this limitation. For Core, we realize that not all users of v1 and v2 will make the move as it doesn't do everything those do. But it offers features the previous versions don't. So some new audience

Of course, that's why I think we should be able to figure something out for the at-home use cases. Tailscale does a great job of this, I think we should be able to as well.

For the hobbyist use case, we'll probably want to figure something out. For commercial use, we plan to sell the historical TSDB. Core is mean to be for recent data, which we hope is a use case that many people have and find it a great fit for.

For at home use cases, we may do a freemium tier of the Enterprise server, which has the compactor, which is what is needed for longer time frames. The hobbyist use case is one we'd like to find a way to support for free.

What's your use case? We've seen many of our users and customers never query beyond 72h (many not even beyond 24h).

Pat Walsh is our new CMO, he might be the best to intro you to. Shoot me an email and I can forward onto him

I'm excited to announce that InfluxDB 3 Open Source Now in Public Alpha Under MIT/Apache 2 License: www.influxdata.com/blog/influxd...

We're also releasing an alpha of InfluxDB 3 Enterprise at the same time.

This builds on years of effort with Apache Arrow, DataFusion, and Parquet.

Congrats! Excited to see you working on it again!

Congrats to @andrewlamb1111.bsky.social and the DataFusion contributors on making DataFusion the fastest engine for querying Parquet data! datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/11...

Happy Nvidia earnings announcement day to all who celebrate

My PVLDB paper announcement bot now supports Bluesky: @pvldb.bsky.social

I am letting it post papers from last issue (August 2024). It will then hit the new volume when it pops later this year.

It's partly a pitch for why you should use DataFusion if you're building a custom data system. I'm excited about database innovation at the edges that DF will enable. I think there are three big opportunities: languages, indexes, and file formats. Usability, performance, and cost wins are possible.
