IoT Office Hours with InfluxDB 3
Session Date: Mar 17, 2026
Time: 8:00am (PT) | 3:00pm (GMT)
Got questions about your IoT data stack? We’ve got answers.
Struggling to get sensor data flowing reliably from your edge devices? Not sure how to structure your schema for thousands of Raspberry Pi nodes? Telegraf not parsing your JSON sensor payloads the way you expect? Bring it.
Senior Developer Advocates Suyash Joshi and Cole Bowden are hosting an open Q&A session for anyone working with IoT data and InfluxDB. Come with your challenges: architecture decisions, edge device ingestion patterns, query optimization, data retention strategies, InfluxDB implementation questions, or anything else you’re working on, whether you’re prototyping a smart home setup or running an industrial fleet of thousands of sensors.
Come ready to talk about things like:
- Schema design for high-volume sensor data
- Getting MQTT, Telegraf, and InfluxDB playing nicely together
- Cardinality problems from device IDs, locations, or tag explosions
- Query optimization for real-time dashboards and alerting
- Data retention strategies and downsampling for long-running deployments
No slides, no pitch. Just an open conversation with engineers who’ve seen these problems before and want to help you solve them.
