#### DBRPs map to InfluxDB buckets
In InfluxDB Cloud and InfluxDB OSS {{< current-version >}}, database/retention-policy (DBRP) combinations
are mapped to buckets using the `database-name/retention-policy` naming convention.
**DBRP mappings are required to query InfluxDB OSS 2.x or InfluxDB Cloud using InfluxQL.**
For information, see [DBRP mapping](/influxdb/v2.1/reference/api/influxdb-1x/dbrp/)
and [Map unmapped buckets](/influxdb/v2.1/query-data/influxql/#map-unmapped-buckets).
