I need to store huge amount of data into Influx, in the range of 2 billion records per week. I want to optimize the way influx stores this data as much as possible. If I know that some fields require only uint16, some require uint32 and some require uint64, can I change the way integers are stored for certain fields?
In essence, is it possible for fields to have data types like small int, integer, long int, etc like in C/C++?
