Hi,
 For attaining higher efficiencies it is recommended on influxdb page that wal 
and data dir should be on different file system. I am planning to use single 
influxdb instance for collecting telegraf data. I have some rough idea about 
data dir size ( i need ~ 3 bytes per data point). But what about wal size? How 
much space should i allocate to wal?

for 2000 servers, with 100 metrics per server, collected once a minute and 
keeping it for 90days (retention period).

2000 x 100 x 60 x 24 x 90 x 3 bytes = 72.5 GBs is needed for data dir.

1) Can you help me with wal disk space requirements?

2) Is there a recommended approach for taking backups of data in AWS? I have a 
highly available influxdb setup(primary /secondary with relay and 
loadbalancers). I would like to recover the data on disk if server crashes.
