Has things changed with InfluxDB 3.0 ?

Previously InfluxDB was Open Core, with very crippled Community version (ie High Availability was Enterprise only)

AWS interestingly launched a managed InfluxDB option under the “Timestream” product this year.

I’ve personally found TimescaleDB to be a much easier to work with platform, even if there is more overhead in defining a schema and enabling compression, etc.

I've been using Influx v1 on a small scaleway instance for a while. I loved it and the tooling around it as well. I would get notifications on Telegram if events needing attention happened.

But v3 is still under development so I'll explore Prometheus.
