High CPU Usage - Influx stops writing

InfluxDB 2
1

Hi Guys,

We are writing around 2k values per second and the influx is about 62% of CPU usage.
After some days the memory starts to increase and the write operation stops.

Any ideas about that?

Thanks in advance

Hello @alvaroqjunior,
Welcome!
Yes high mem and CPU usage is something that InfluxData is trying to address with the new storage engine. Learn about it here:

In the meantime if you decide not to migrate to InfluxDB Cloud powered by IOx I encourage you to try using downsampling tasks to reduce your data or expire them automatically more frequently. Or scale horizontally.
