METHOD FOR STORAGE, QUERYING, AND ANALYSIS OF TIME SERIES DATA

摘要

A method for performing queries on a distributed time series data storage system is presented. The time series data storage system has a time series database that stores data blocks containing time stamped data across a plurality of computing devices. The system also includes an index database that stores an index associated with the time stamped data in each data block. The method includes the steps of sending a query, requesting indices, returning the indices, preparing a sub-query, forwarding the sub-query to an evaluator, evaluating the sub-query, performing a logical operation on each sub-query's result, receiving the sub-results at an output handler, and combining the sub-results.
