Description
Objective:
We should create a new/reference/processing-engine section that explains the InfluxDB 3 processing engine in a way that is independent of the CLI and API interfaces. This reference should serve as a conceptual and technical overview of how the engine works under the hood.
What the feature does and why it’s useful
- Provides foundational knowledge of the InfluxDB 3 processing engine, separate from how it’s accessed via CLI or API
- Helps users understand key concepts like query execution, pipeline stages, triggers, and data transformations
- Supports power users, integrators, and curious developers who want deeper visibility into how the system processes data
