I have two databases(dbA, dbB) which the size of dbA is three times the size of dbB. But in fact , both of them have almost same size (about 150G). Does influxDB compress the data?

@smartczy Yes! We apply a variety of compression methods to the data. We have an excellent section on our storage engine in the docs.
