InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
ini files aren't standardized, the syntax is really "whatever the parser implements". For new projects I recommend using toml instead. It's ini-like, but standardized. Python 3.11 even comes with a builtin parser tomllib (earlier python versions can use tomli, which is what tomllib is based on).
I'll seize this opportunity to plug snekcfg, a lightweight wrapper over configparser. As others have said, they are config alternatives that will be better suited for many situations, but if you just need simple, sectioned, key-value configuration, INI does the job. snekcfg just tries to make it a bit more straightforward to use.
