About
InfluxDB is a time series database for real-time systems that ingest, store, query, and analyze high-resolution operational data. The page describes self-managed InfluxDB 3 Core (OSS) and InfluxDB 3 Enterprise, plus fully managed InfluxDB Cloud Serverless, Cloud Dedicated, and Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB.
The product is used for telemetry, infrastructure monitoring, industrial IoT, satellite telemetry, energy systems, and physical AI workloads. The pricing page states that InfluxDB 3 Core is free forever, InfluxDB 3 Enterprise includes a 30-day free trial, and Cloud Serverless includes $250 free credit with usage-based pricing after that. Cloud Serverless pricing is listed at $0.0025 per MB written, $0.012 per 100 query executions, $0.002 per GB-hour for storage, and $0.09 per GB transferred out.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is a capped starter offer: it includes a one-time $250 credit, plus limited ingestion and 30-day retention, so it has real value but not an ongoing monthly allowance. Because credits are one-off rather than recurring, the monthly value is not estimated here; the offer is still attractive for early evaluation, and no credit card is required to begin.

- $250 free credit to start.
- No minimum commitment.
- Multi-tenant service with service quotas.
- No high availability included.
- Limited data ingestion rates.
- 30-day retention included.
