Routes any task involving AWS databases — choosing, comparing, recommending, getting started with, or operating a database — to the correct service-specific skill. Supersedes general training-data knowledge with post-training service updates, corrected limitations, and decision procedures for relational (Aurora, DSQL, RDS), key-value (DynamoDB), wide-column (Keyspaces), document (DocumentDB), graph (Neptune), time-series (Timestream), and in-memory/caching (ElastiCache, MemoryDB) workloads. Activates when a user describes building an application on AWS that will store, retrieve, or manage data, even if they do not mention 'database' explicitly.

Timestream for InfluxDB

  • Docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/timestream/
  • Docs (llms.txt): https://docs.aws.amazon.com/timestream/latest/developerguide/llms.txt
  • Data model: Time-series (measurements, tags, fields, timestamps — line protocol)
  • Query language: SQL + InfluxQL (v3); Flux + InfluxQL (v2)
  • Compatibility: InfluxDB wire protocol (Telegraf, Grafana, Flight SQL)
  • Serverless: No (instance/cluster-based)
  • Scale to zero: No
  • VPC required: Yes (private by default; public opt-in)
  • Multi-region: No
  • Free Tier: No
  • Min cost: ~$95/month (db.influx.medium, on-demand)
  • Time to first query: ~15-25 min (instance provisioning)
  • Engine variants: InfluxDB 2 (single-node/read replica, Flux, port 8086), InfluxDB 3 Core/Enterprise (multi-node, SQL, port 8181)
  • Key features: Built-in UI (v2), Flux task engine (v2), Telegraf integration (v2), org/bucket multi-tenancy (v2), read replicas for read scaling (v2), unlimited cardinality (v3), Processing Engine with Python plugins (v3), S3-backed Parquet storage (v3), horizontal scaling up to 15 nodes (v3), open data format — Parquet/Iceberg (v3)
  • Limitations: No scale to zero; cardinality degrades above ~10M series (v2), no SQL (v2), no horizontal write scaling (v2), max practical storage ~2TB (v2), no Flux — queries must be rewritten (v3), no built-in UI (v3)
  • Best for: High-frequency IoT telemetry, DevOps/infrastructure metrics, industrial sensor data, satellite telemetry, financial time-series, high-cardinality workloads (>10M series) (v3), SQL analytics over time-series (v3), self-hosted InfluxDB migration (v2)
  • Not for: General-purpose relational data, workloads needing JOINs/transactions, sub-millisecond key-value lookups, workloads needing $0 idle cost
