In this episode, we interview Brian Gilmore, director of IoT and Emerging Technology at InfluxData. InfluxData is the creator of InfluxDB, a pioneering time series platform that allows developers to build real-time IoT, analytics, and cloud applications with time-stamped data. They handle massive volumes of data produced by sensors, applications, and systems that change over time.
Today, we discuss how next-generation databases create new opportunities by enabling organizations to seamlessly integrate real-time IoT data streams with cloud databases. We also dive deep into the relationships between database technology and adjacent innovations in AI, AR, and blockchain.
Key Questions:
- What is the right way to think about “real time” from the perspective of a user?
- What are the unique uses of time series data, and what challenges does it present?
- How are AI, AR and blockchain being integrated into IoT systems?
- What recent database developments are improving management of complex IoT systems?
