Building an IoT Monitoring App with InfluxDB
summary
Builds a working Plant Buddy app that ingests four sensor streams (temperature, humidity, light, soil moisture) with a Particle microcontroller, writes points via Telegraf or the Python client into InfluxDB OSS, downsamples on the edge and replicates aggregates to Cloud using edge-to-cloud replication. Uses Flask for the UI, Plotly for graphs, Flux on OSS and Flight SQL/IOx with Parquet on Cloud. Code and deployment commands are on GitHub and the demo produces live graphs.
