📄️ taosAdaptertaosAdapter is a TDengine companion tool that acts as a bridge and adapter between TDengine clusters and applications. It provides an easy-to-use and efficient way to ingest data directly from data collection agent software such as Telegraf, StatsD, collectd, etc. It also provides an InfluxDB/OpenTSDB compatible data ingestion interface, allowing InfluxDB/OpenTSDB applications to be seamlessly ported to TDengine.

📄️ taosBenchmarktaosBenchmark (once called taosdemo ) is a tool for testing the performance of TDengine.

📄️ taosdumptaosdump is a tool that supports backing up data from a running TDengine cluster and restoring the backed up data to the same, or another running TDengine cluster.

📄️ TDinsightTDinsight is a solution for monitoring TDengine using the builtin native monitoring database and [Grafana].

📄️ Command Line InterfaceInstructions and tips for using the TDengine CLI

📄️ supported platformsList of platforms supported by TDengine server, client, and connector

📄️ TDengine Docker imagesThis chapter focuses on starting the TDengine service in a container and accessing it.

📄️ ConfigurationConfiguration parameters for client and server in TDengine

📄️ File directory structureTDengine installation directory description

📄️ Schemaless writingThe Schemaless write method eliminates the need to create super tables/sub tables in advance and automatically creates the storage structure corresponding to the data, as it is written to the interface.

📄️ taosKeeperexports TDengine monitoring metrics.
