AOS8 Influxdb Grafana

This document outlines the setup and configuration of InfluxDB, Grafana, and related tools for analytics on a NUC server. Key steps include installing Ubuntu Server, InfluxDB, and Grafana, connecting them, and testing REST APIs on a Mobility Master and Controller. Python scripts are used to insert test data into InfluxDB, which is then visualized in Grafana dashboards.
