Like a lot of Influxdb users I am pi**ed of about their new policies. I am still on V1 and was looking forward to upgrading to V3. Time for a change…
I did look at TDengine and they have a perfect way of migrating as they have an InfluxDB connector. In the end QuestDB won out on features and openness.
That still leaves me with a live InfluxDB database to migrate.
I have seen the clever way of using Grafana to export CSV’s but the batch limits make it a bit clunky for my setup. I could write some Python to do the job but I am looking for a shortcut to get it done. Then I remembered that InfluxDB can export Line Protocol files directly.
As QuestDB implements the InfluxDB Line Protocol to ingest data can I import an LP file into QuestDB directly?
