Can you elaborate please?

I have always used Prometheus + Grafana for monitoring, and I feel like InfluxDB is more aimed towards IoT sensors data representation.

Do you have any experience to share?

InfluxDB stores individual events e.g. error occured at 11.01am whereas Prometheus stores the aggregates i.e. number of errors occured between 11.01am and 11.02am.

This depends on how you use it. It's pretty common to use something like statsd or a prometheus exporter to aggregate data before storing it in InfluxDB.
