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.
MakeMeAdmin's wiki contains a document on [User Account Control (UAC) settings](https://github.com/pseymour/MakeMeAdmin/wiki/UAC-Settings) and, towards the bottom, you'll see `EnableLUA` which this app designates enabling the setting as a requirement. For what it's worth, I build our Windows 10/11 Golden Images for my employer (~12,500 devices) and each image I build is required to pass a pen-test. Having `EnableLUA` instantly disqualifies the image and fails the pen-test. I'm not sure exactly what it does but I'd hesitate to enable this setting globally throughout my organization.
