Buying a GeminiDB Influx Cluster Instance

Updated on 2025-01-24 GMT+08:00

This section describes how to buy a cluster instance that is compatible with InfluxDB APIs on the GeminiDB console.

Each tenant can create a maximum of 50 GeminiDB Influx instances by default. To request a higher quota, choose Service Tickets > Create Service Ticket in the upper right corner of the console and contact customer service.

Prerequisites

  • You have created a Huawei Cloud account.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Huawei Cloud console.
  2. In the service list, choose Databases > GeminiDB Influx API.
  3. On the Instances page, click Buy DB Instance.
  4. On the displayed page, specify a billing mode and instance specifications and click Next.

    Figure 1 Billing mode and basic information
    Table 1 Billing description

    Parameter

    Description

    Billing Mode

    Select Yearly/Monthly or Pay-per-use.

    • Yearly/Monthly
      • Specify Required Duration. The system deducts fees from your account based on the service price.
      • If you do not need such an instance any longer after it expires, change the billing mode to pay-per-use. For details, see Yearly/Monthly to Pay-per-Use.
        NOTE:

        Yearly/Monthly instances cannot be deleted directly. If such an instance is no longer required, unsubscribe from it. For details, see How Do I Unsubscribe from Yearly/Monthly Instances?.

    • Pay-per-use
      • If you select this billing mode, you are billed based on how much time the instance is in use.
      • To use an instance for a long time, change its billing mode to yearly/monthly to reduce costs. For details, see Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly.
    Table 2 Basic information

    Parameter

    Description

    Region

    The region where the tenant is located. It can be changed in the upper left corner.

    NOTICE:

    To reduce network latency, select a region nearest from which you will access the instance. Instances deployed in different regions cannot communicate with each other over a private network. After you buy an instance, you cannot change its region.

    DB Instance Name

    The instance name:

    • Can be the same as an existing instance name.
    • Can contain 4 to 64 characters and must start with a letter. It is case-sensitive and allows only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_). If the name contains Chinese characters, the length cannot exceed 64 bytes.

    You can change the name of an instance after it is created. For details, see Changing an Instance Name.

    Compatible API

    InfluxDB

    Storage Type

    • Classic: classic separated storage and compute architecture
    • Cloud native: new-gen separated storage and compute architecture which is more flexible and supports more AZs
      NOTE:
      • Cloud native storage only supports the pay-per-use billing mode.
      • Cloud native storage only supports cluster (performance-enhanced) instances.
      • The way you use instances with classic or cloud native storage is similar. Cloud native storage supports more AZs. If both classic and cloud native are supported, you can select any of them.

    DB Instance Type

    Cluster

    DB Engine Version

    1.8

    AZ

    Availability zone where the instance is created. An AZ is a part of a region with its own independent power supplies and networks. AZs are physically isolated but can communicate with each other over a private network.

    An instance can be deployed in one or three AZs.

    • If you want to deploy an instance in a single AZ, select one AZ.
    • If you want to deploy your instance across AZs for disaster recovery, select three AZs. Nodes of the instance are evenly distributed across the three AZs.
    Figure 2 Specifications and storage

    Table 3 Specifications and storage

    Parameter

    Description

    Data Node Specifications

    Data nodes provide read and write capabilities for time series databases. The specifications depend on configurations of the DFV shared resource pool and memory. Select specifications based on service requirements.

    For details about supported specifications, see Instance Specifications.

    Data Nodes

    Select the number of data nodes based on service requirements. After an instance is created, you can add nodes. For details, see Adding Nodes.

    Currently, a maximum of 12 nodes are supported. To create more nodes, choose Service Tickets > Create Service Ticket in the upper right corner of the console and contact customer service.

    Storage Space

    The storage is an integer and the minimum storage is 100 GB. You can add a minimum of 1 GB at a time.

    Purchase Cold Storage

    Cold storage is used to store historical data that is not frequently queried. When purchasing a GeminiDB Influx instance, you can purchase cold storage and configure the retention policy to specify the retention period of hot data. In this way, hot data will be automatically archived in cold storage after the retention period expires, reducing storage costs. The value can be:

    • Yes

      Set the cold storage capacity to suit your service requirements.

    • No

      Do not purchase cold storage.

    For more information about cold and hot data separation, see Cold and Hot Data Separation.

    If you do not enable cold storage when creating an instance, you can enable it later based on service requirements. For details, see Enabling Cold Storage.

    NOTE:

    Cold storage cannot be disabled after being enabled.

    Cold Storage

    The cold storage is an integer from 500 GB to 100,000 GB. You can add a minimum of 1 GB each time you scale up storage space.

    After an instance is created, you can scale up its cold storage. For details, see Scaling Up Cold Storage.

    Figure 3 Network and database configurations
    Table 4 Network configurations

    Parameter

    Description

    VPC

    Virtual private network where your instances are located. A VPC isolates networks for different services. You can select an existing VPC or create one.

    For details about how to create a VPC, see "Creating a VPC" in Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.

    With VPC sharing, you can also use a VPC and subnet shared by another account.

    VPC owners can share the subnets in a VPC with one or multiple accounts through Resource Access Manager (RAM). This allows for more efficient use of network resources and reduces O&M costs.

    For more information about VPC subnet sharing, see VPC Sharing in Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.

    If there are no VPCs available, the system automatically allocates a VPC to you.

    NOTE:
    • After a GeminiDB Influx instance is created, the VPC where the instance is deployed cannot be changed.
    • If you want to connect to a GeminiDB Influx instance from an ECS over a private network, ensure that the instance and the ECS are in the same VPC. If they are not, create a VPC peering connection between them.

    Subnet

    A subnet where your instance is created. The subnet provides dedicated and isolated networks, improving network security.

    NOTE:

    An IPv6 subnet cannot be associated with your instance. Select an IPv4 subnet.

    Security Group

    A security group controls access between GeminiDB Influx instances and other services. Ensure that the security group you selected allows your client to access the instance.

    If no security group is available, the system creates one for you.

    Table 5 Database configurations

    Parameter

    Description

    Administrator

    Username of the administrator account. The default value is rwuser.

    Administrator Password

    Password of the administrator account. The password:

    • Can contain 8 to 32 characters.
    • Can include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and any of the following special characters: ~!@#%^*-_=+?
    • For security reasons, set a strong password. The system will verify the password strength.

    Keep your password secure. The system cannot retrieve it if it is lost.

    Confirm Password

    This password must be consistent with the administrator password.

    Parameter Template

    A template of parameters for creating an instance. The template contains API configuration values that are applied to one or more instances.

    After an instance is created, you can modify its parameters to better meet your service requirements. For details, see Modifying Parameters of GeminiDB Influx Instances.

    Enterprise Project

    This parameter is provided for enterprise users.

    An enterprise project groups cloud resources, so you can manage resources and members by project. The default project is default.

    Select an enterprise project from the drop-down list. For more information about enterprise projects, see Enterprise Management User Guide.

    SSL

    A security protocol. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates set up encrypted connections between clients and servers, preventing data from being tampered with or stolen during transmission.

    You can enable SSL to improve data security. After an instance is created, you can connect to it using SSL.

    Figure 4 Enabling SSL

    After SSL is enabled, you can select the default certificate or the certificate issued by the CCM service.

    NOTE:
    Table 6 Tags

    Parameter

    Description

    Tags

    The setting is optional. Adding tags helps you better identify and manage your instances. A maximum of 20 tags can be added for each instance.

    If your organization has configured a tag policy for a GeminiDB Influx instance, you need to add a tag to the instance based on the tag policy. If the tag does not comply with the tag policy, the instance may fail to be created. Contact the organization administrator to learn details about the tag policy.

    A tag consists of a tag key and a tag value.

    • Tag key: mandatory if the instance is going to be tagged.

      Each tag key is unique for each instance. The key can include up to 36 characters, including digits, letters, underscores (_), and hyphens (-).

    • Tag value: optional if the instance is going to be tagged.

      The value can be empty.

      The value can contain up to 43 characters, including digits, letters, underscores (_), periods (.), and hyphens (-).

    After an instance is created, you can view its tag details on the Tags tab. In addition, you can add, modify, and delete tags of an existing instance. For details, see Managing Tags.
