I read your post. When is the first release of InfluxDB Edge?

We don’t yet know when the first release will be. We’ll put out an alpha when we have it available.

Hi Pauldix, I’m in the process of planning the data infrastructure for a startup and more or less decided to use influx db. I’ll need a running prototype until end of the year. Would you recommend 1.8 or 2.7 until OSS 3 is out?

Is there any docker image available for influxDB 3.0? The latest on Docker Hub is 2.7.1. I saw your promotional video, and 3.0 has a lot of really cool stuff. Please advise.

Using 1.8 and keeping to InfluxQL will probably be the easiest transition. Although you could use 2.7 and enable the InfluxQL API in that if you prefer. We’ll have data migration tools for both to v3.
