title: Why influxDB discourages/depreciate the use of Web Admin Interface (GUI) starting from 1.2?
body: <p>As quote from the documentation:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The built-in web administration GUI is deprecated in InfluxDB 1.2 and is disabled by default. We recommend using the HTTP API or the Command Line Interface to interact with InfluxDB.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Why does it encourage using HTTP API (HTTP method) and CLI, instead of the intuitive Web GUI? What is the benefit of applying this?</p>
