San Francisco, CA, January 24, 2017 – InfluxData, the premier real-time monitoring and analytics platform provider, and the company behind the leading Open Source Platform for time series data, announces that InfluxEnteprise 1.2 is immediately available. InfluxDB Enterprise is powered by the open source TICK stack, and includes enhanced functionality around scalability, availability, and security. Customers use InfluxData’s products to deliver the visibility and insight into metric, log, IoT, and sensor data to provide an always-on single consolidated view of their data.

“We continue to work diligently with the open source community optimizing the database to support faster performance and expanded workloads,” said Paul Dix, Founder, and CTO of InfluxData. “Community members and our customers will now be able to achieve even faster results making it possible for them to expand the reach of their real-time IoT and monitoring solutions to even more demanding problems.”

InfluxDB Enterprise 1.2 now includes incremental backups of the database. This provides greater flexibility for customers who are managing InfluxDB Enterprise instances and reduces storage costs associated with having to maintain multiple full backups of the entire database.

InfluxDB Enterprise 1.2 is built upon the open source TICK stack and includes all of the latest innovations. Highlights of the 1.2 versions TICK stack include:

• InfluxDB has extended its query language to support sub-queries. This allows users to be more efficient in finding insights in their data.
• InfluxDB has a significantly improved underlying data cache, which yields a 50% write performance boost under load, allowing users to rapidly store even more data than before.
• Kapacitor has enhanced alert condition handling which allows greater flexibility and simplicity in sending notifications.

InfluxDB Enterprise 1.2 is immediately available to all paying customers, and a trial version is available here.
