| Integrations | The documentation lists support for Grafana, Prometheus Remote Write, Nagios/Icinga, StatsD, Collectd, InfluxDB line protocol, and AMQP 1.0. | InfluxDB connects to data sources through 400+ pre-built Telegraf plugins and has official client libraries including Python, JavaScript, Go, Java, and C#. |
| Purpose | Gnocchi is an open-source time series database for storing and indexing time series data and resources at large scale. | InfluxDB 3 is a time series database and platform built for high-frequency, timestamped data. |
| Storage | Documented storage options include file, Ceph, OpenStack Swift, Amazon S3, and Redis; Ceph is described as the recommended driver. | InfluxDB 3 stores data as compressed Parquet files in object storage with S3 API compatibility. |
| Support | The project documentation points users to its source code, GitHub bug tracker, and the #gnocchi IRC channel on OFTC. | InfluxDB 3 Core is community supported, while Enterprise and Cloud Dedicated include a technical support SLA. |

In their own words
InfluxDB
InfluxDB 3 is a time series database and platform for high-frequency data recorded with timestamps. It supports native SQL and InfluxQL queries, plus a built-in Python processing engine. Data can enter through line protocol, an HTTP API, client libraries, Telegraf or the influxdb3 CLI. More than 400 pre-built Telegraf plugins and official libraries for Python, JavaScript, Go, Java and C# connect it to data sources. InfluxDB stores data as compressed Parquet files in object storage with S3 API compatibility. Deployment choices include open-source single-node Core, self-managed Enterprise, managed Cloud Serverless and Cloud Dedicated, and Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB. InfluxData describes uses in industrial operations, observability and AI applications needing real-time data. Core is intended for development, prototyping and edge deployments, but lacks high availability and enterprise security. Cloud Serverless has a free option with service quotas and no high availability, plus $250 free credit. Core has community support; Enterprise and Cloud Dedicated include a technical support SLA.
