Remove the silos
InfluxDB unifies satellite telemetry in a single platform, eliminating siloed datasets across missions and operations.
InfluxDB 3 is built for satellite & communications workloads
Massive ingestion throughput
Sustains continuous, bursty, and high-frequency ingest from satellites and ground networks without dropping data.
Unlimited cardinality
Handles massive tag counts like satellite IDs, beams, gateways, terminals, regions, modems, and links so you can slice performance by any operational dimension.
Real-time query performance
Sub-second analytics over long time ranges, enabling rapid correlation between spacecraft health, link metrics, and network service KPIs.
Unified operational visibility
Bring together data across assets to give operators a single source of truth so they can track performance, spot anomalies, and act fast to prevent failures and mission-critical outages.
Endless deployment flexibility
Run self managed, on-prem, private or sovereign environments (including segmented or air-gapped setups) for export control and data residency constraints.
Cost-efficient long-term retention
Optimized for timestamped metrics, enabling efficient storage, compression, and retrieval of spacecraft, RF, and network performance data without complex schema design.
Trusted across space
Satellite operators require real-time, resilient systems
Operators use separate telemetry systems for spacecraft health and network performance, forcing teams to manually correlate data, slowing incident response, and increasing the risk of SLA breaches. InfluxDB unifies space and ground telemetry into a single high performance time series backbone, accelerating root cause analysis, improving predictive insights, and simplifying operations at constellation scale.
Protecting health and broadband service
Eutelsat/OneWeb built their telemetry backbone on InfluxDB to operate 600+ low Earth orbit satellites and 35 geostationary satellites. InfluxDB ingests over one million data points per second and manages 15+ million time series across space and ground — delivering real-time intelligence to protect satellite health and broadband service availability.

Reducing risk, engineering time and operational overhead
LeoLabs operates a global radar network that tracks 20K+ objects in orbit each day including satellites, rocket bodies, and debris, maintaining a real-time map of space activity used by defense, civil, and commercial operators. As radar volumes grew, their open-source telemetry stack struggled with performance, data loss, security exposure, and operational overhead. By moving to InfluxDB, LeoLabs stabilized ingestion, improved long-term data retention, reduced security risk, and freed engineering time.

Capturing geospatial intelligence with InfluxDB
EarthDaily Analytics is a Vancouver-based earth observation and geospatial intelligence company building a 10-spacecraft mini-constellation to image the entire planet daily and power predictive AI models. To accelerate satellite R&D, they use InfluxDB to store and analyze launch test telemetry sent in 300MB bursts every 96 minutes, capturing 600+ measurements per interval. InfluxDB handles up to 600 columns with no performance degradation and reliably ingests 300MB every five minutes, enabling rapid analysis and iteration.

Analyzing with instantaneous responses
Epsilon3 provides a web-based procedure and workflow platform for aerospace operations. It’s often used as the operational interface for commanding and monitoring satellites. Engineers visualize real-time and historical telemetry directly alongside procedural steps using Epsilon3’s premium offering: Analyze.
InfluxDB is at the heart of this offering. It ingests a wide variety of telemetry from: low-frequency (1 Hz) data to high-frequency test data (up to 1000 Hz). InfluxDB's fast query performance ensures that users receive a near “instantaneous response” when analyzing or querying data.
