AWS IoT Core now supports native InfluxDB routing for time-series data

AWS IoT Core

AWS IoT Core now supports InfluxDB rule action that routes time-series data from your Internet of Things (IoT) devices directly to InfluxDB databases, without writing custom device-side code or using intermediate cloud services. The new rule action automatically converts time-series data to InfluxDB’s line protocol format and writes it to either an Amazon Timestream managed or a self-hosted InfluxDB cluster. It supports device-side and server-side batching modes to optimize cost and throughput.

What to do

• Connect your IoT devices to AWS IoT Core.
• Define an InfluxDB rule action specifying the destination database, authentication, and batching parameters.
• Monitor and optimize data routing using the new rule action.
