A new release of InfluxDB 2.0 Beta is available now. We will be shipping regular updates as we add new features and fix issues. Please keep in mind that these beta builds are not meant for testing performance or production usage. Please join us in our InfluxDB Community Slack and help us by giving feedback on the functionality, user experience, and APIs. Please see our official announcement blog for a more detailed look at the capabilities and roadmap for InfluxDB 2.0 OSS.

This release of InfluxDB 2.0 Beta includes the following enhancements:

  • Limit memory usage for queries — New command line flags have been added to influxd to help you better control the queries run against the database. You can set a maximum memory usage per query, maximum concurrent queries to be running, and many other options. For full details, see influxd -h or our documentation.
  • New navigation menu — The navigation menu in the application has been completely overhauled to give you quicker access to the things you use most. You can also minimize it to save screen real estate.
  • UI bug fixes and enhancements — We have addressed a number of minor UI issues that have been on our list including the way dashboards are organized, the process of editing Flux queries, and some text wrapping issues.

Please download and explore our latest release. If you find issues or have questions, please join our InfluxDB Community Slack, post them in our InfluxDB GitHub Repo or our Community Site and we will take a look. Thank you for all the interest and positive feedback so far.
