Capture every signal
From flight tests to orbital missions, aerospace workloads demand high-fidelity capture at scale. InfluxDB analyzes millions of points per second with nanosecond precision, ensuring no signal is missed.
Run queries across billions of records in milliseconds to detect anomalies, validate mission readiness, and fuel applications where uptime and accuracy are critical.
InfluxDB 3 is built for aerospace workloads
Massive Ingestion Throughput
Ingest millions of unique series per second for high-cardinality telemetry from engines, flight systems, and satellites.
Real-Time Analytics
Query across billions of time-stamped records in <10 ms, supporting use cases from anomaly detection to real-time dashboards and alerts.
Edge-First Deployments
Run analytics and models where data originates. Process events on edge devices or ground stations, then sync with cloud or on-prem clusters for global visibility.
Low-Cost Object Storage at Scale
Store decades of high-resolution telemetry with compression and low-cost object storage, keeping data accessible for compliance, audits, digital twins, and AI training, without driving up infrastructure costs.
Aerospace requires modern, real-time systems
InfluxDB goes beyond capture and query—it gives aerospace teams the infrastructure to act on their telemetry. Process data at the edge, store massive volumes efficiently, and keep it ready for real-time analysis. Spot anomalies early, predict faults, optimize fleets, and act instantly on mission-critical systems anywhere, while meeting the strict demands of compliance and reliability.
Insights at Orbit Speed
Thales Alenia Space uses InfluxDB to collect and process satellite sensor data in real-time, supporting telecommunications, navigation, and scientific research. High-volume ingestion and live processing optimize satellite operations, while efficient queries and ML integration improve fault detection and forecasting. By turning continuous telemetry into actionable insight, Thales Alenia Space ensures mission reliability and accelerates discovery on Earth and in space.
