Integration with InfluxDB: Retrieving and Storing Revenue Data Using Flow Director

Explore how Flow Director integrates with InfluxDB to capture and process revenue data.

Integration Process:

• Topic Interception:
  • Intercepts the topic warehouse_order_event to fetch revenue data from the Warehouse sample app. This app runs on the same Flow Director instance.
• Data Storage:
  • The retrieved invoice totals are stored in a local InfluxDB instance.
• Timer-Driven Query:
  • On the right configuration, a timer is triggered every 5 minutes.
  • Executes a Flux query to aggregate the revenue data from the last 5 minutes.
• Data Forwarding:
  • The aggregated revenue data is then sent to a local queue.

Efficiently leverage the capabilities of InfluxDB and Flow Director to monitor and process revenue data at regular intervals.
