Influx is very powerful and flexible. It is schema-less so it just stores everything you throw at it. You can upload your data as a flat file, or index it as many ways as you please with keys.
So it all depends on what you want to do. I’ve tried to make the configuration somewhat versatile with the wildcard substitution capability. For my own purposes, I use the default settings for measurement and field-key.
The nice part is that you can upload a weeks worth of history with one configuration and play around with it (using whatever compatible visualization tool you fancy). You can then upload the same data as a different series and play with that. When you get what you want, upload as much of your history as you want and continue to post from there.
