Hi All,
I am using Prometheus with SNMP exporter to fetch metrics from network 
devices like router, switch, etc. After creating dashboards in Grafana, I 
realized that Prometheus does not provide downsampling for long term 
storage over years such that footprint is fixed and small. So InfluxDB is 
installed along with Prometheus with the intention of using it for long 
term storage for Prometheus data employing different RPs & CQs for 
downsampling data depending on retention period.

I want Grafana to now display data from InfluxDB instead of Prometheus.

I find porting PromQL dashboards to InfluxQL for Prometheus collected data 
stored into InfluxDB a very challenging task. For example, In all 
dashboards, I use template variable Job (say with value=ubiquiti) to select 
from available devices and then use another template variable Instance ( 
value=ip.address.of.device) to select particular device among the pool of 
Ubiquiti devices.

But in InfluxQL I can either query Jobs or Instances not both.

show tag values from "ifInOctets" with key="instance" 
show tag values from "ifInOctets" with key="job"

Any pointers are welcome.

I have enabled both remote read and write in Prometheus for InfluxDB. Is it 
possible to keep existing PromQL dashboards with the ability to read 
historic and current data simultaneously?

Thanks in advance
