Re: Amazon Timestream – Fast, scalable, fully managed time series database
#52jesus christ six amazon articles in a day? AWS is undeniably the body of christ for HN but am i missing something? FSX, blockchain, timestream, Graviton, ground station, and cloudwatch... all of these articles are advertisements for mundane shit.
There will be a lot more. The keynote today still has an hour left, and there is two more hours of keynotes tomorrow. (Written from keynote floor)
Where can I see your keynote-notes/updates?

#53A quick look at the Hacker News frontpage shows a bit of a problem, 1. Amazon Timestream (amazon.com) 3. Amazon Quantum Ledger Database (amazon.com) 8. Amazon FSx for Lustre (amazon.com) 13. AWS DynamoDB On-Demand (amazon.com) 14. Amazon's homegrown Graviton processor was very nearly an AMD Arm CPU (theregister.co.uk) 21. Building an Alexa-Powered Electric Blanket (shkspr.mobi) 30. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server…
AWS Re:Invent is happening in Las Vegas this week. AWS is launching new services all this week. People here are interested in cloud services, so it makes sense that people share and upvote those announcements. I don't see the problem that you're talking about.

Have you looked at Clickhouse for timeseries data? It's the one database I've found that can scale and can query in near-realtime. I've loaded a 100 Billion Rows in into a 5 shard database and can do full queries across the whole dataset in under 10 seconds. It also natively consumes multiple kafka topics.
> I've loaded a 100 Billion Rows Have you done any load tests that would more closely mirror a production environment such as performing queries while clickhouse is handling a heavy insert load?
I'm working on developing benchmarking tools for internal testing, but both Yandex and CloudFlare use Clickhouse for realtime querying. I'm still in development phase for my product, but I'll make sure to post information & results when we launch here.

But I've spent a long time looking at the various solutions out there, and while ClickHouse is not perfect, I think it's the best multi-purpose database out there for large volumes of data. TimescaleDB is another one, but until they get sharding it's dead on arrival.

#55It's got to be a rough day for the team at https://www.influxdata.com/ . This could become serious competition for their InfluxCloud hosted offering.
and for timescaledb, streamlio, two sigma, kdb+ , quasardb ( and perhaps pipelinedb)

Ah, sorry. I should've known you'd already be on it. Thanks.

It's a quirky piece of software and has limitations that need to be considered when standing up a production cluster- such as you cannot reshard it currently. If you have a 3 node cluster, it's messy and requires downtime to add another node.

This space is growing like mad. They would be remiss if they did not expect something like this.

I don’t usually do that, I just share my thoughts as comments on HN. There’s enough people doing that other stuff. :)
