Manufacturing

Modern manufacturers use InfluxDB to capture and analyze the high-fidelity telemetry and time series behind every machine, line, and plant to maximize OEE, predict failures, and keep operations running at peak efficiency.

See every signal. Act in real-time.

Machines on factory floors stream data constantly, often at sub-second resolution, relaying condition, performance, and yield metrics. InfluxDB ingests this IIoT data, or high-frequency time series, in real-time to spot anomalies, avoid downtime, and optimize operations.

Time series data shows the full picture—past, present, and next—powering predictive maintenance and true Industry 4.0 readiness.

Purpose-built for the scale and precision of modern manufacturing

Massive ingestion throughput

Ingest millions of unique data streams—from every machine, device, and sensor from PLCs, SCADA, and OT systems to monitor production lines, machine health, and supply-chain equipment.

Real-time analytics

Query millions of series in less than 10 ms to drive automated quality checks, trigger alerts, or feed ML models for adaptive process control.

Unified operational visibility

Create a single source of truth across plants, lines, and sites. Break down silos so operations, engineering, and IT teams can monitor, report, and perform root-cause analysis in real-time.

Edge-first, real-time processing

Run anomaly detection and predictive models at the edge—even with intermittent connectivity—for faster response where it matters most.
