Flux is entered maintenance mode

[zzz]

InfluxDB 3 retires Flux, re-favoring InfluxQL.

Thank you. That is interesting. I guess, InfluxDB will go through a period of instability because of so significant changes.

Do you use InfluxDB with Rapid SCADA?

[zzz]

I have InfluxDB2 and RapidScada6.0 on a remote box setup a year ago.
I was thinking about updating influxdb to the latest and just found the change in v3. I guess we need to use InfluxQL more and diminish the use of Flux for query. But it was treated like a 2nd class citizen in v2.

I suppose, they will provide backward compatibility and we can use Flux for a long period. We should wait until they found a good solution. Who knows, may be in InfluxDB4 they will change the approach again.

If InfluxDB3 does not support Flux, ModArcInfluxDb.dll will require full rewrite.
