A Timeseries Database
seriesly is a database for storing and querying time series data.
Unlike databases like RRDtool, it's schemaless so you can just lob
data into it and start hacking. However, it also doesn't use a finite
amount of space. Tradeoffs.
Detailed docs are in the wiki.
Quick Start
Prereqs:
To build the software, you need a go runtime installed.
Preferably a recent one.
Installation
go get github.com/dustin/seriesly
Running
Seriesly will use as many cores as you have to offer. Set the
GOMAXPROCS environment variable to the number of cores (or hardware
threads) you've got. There's a lot of fine-grained tuning you can
employ to specify how to map the software needs to your hardware, but
the defaults should work quite well.
Then just start blasting data into it. See the protocol docs
for details on this.
More Info
My blog post provides an overview of the why and a little bit
of the what. There's also a youtube video of me demoing
the software a few days after the initial version hit github. It's
matured a lot since then, but the core concepts haven't changed.
