migrate to influx V3 #1
Description
Flux V1 was a little alpha in maturity, but reasonable and performed well. Flux V2 was a train wreck, and never should have been released. Regardless of the implementation of a new web user interface, it mandated a new query syntax. This query syntax was completely different from the syntax used in V1, and therefore not intuitive at all. Even worse, once released, Flux would then perform a 180 and announce this new syntax would not exist past V2. Such indecisiveness is rarely if ever observed.
The decision of whether to upgrade to the currently unreleased Influx V3, or move to a different metrics provider, needs to be made.
