feature

Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB now allows customers to use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) customer managed keys for encrypting data at rest. This enhancement applies to InfluxDB 2 instances, read replicas, and InfluxDB 3 clusters, providing enhanced security and compliance control. Customers select a symmetric AWS KMS key during resource creation, which encrypts the underlying database storage. This feature is available in all supported AWS Regions and does not incur additional Timestream for InfluxDB charges, though standard AWS KMS fees apply.
