InfluxDB 1.x was definitely not designed for that. With Flux in InfluxDB 2.0 you will be able to do things like store reference data in other places and join that with time series data in InfluxDB at query time. You can also sort, group and filter by any measurement, tag, field, or value. However, there are no user defined secondary indexes so the scope of this will be a bit more limited based on how things are stored. I'd have to know more about the specific kinds of queries to figure if it's something that would make sense within InfluxDB 2.
