OpenTSDB 2.0.1

From the homepage:

Store

  • Data is stored exactly as you give it
  • Write with millisecond precision
  • Keep raw data forever

Scale

  • Runs on Hadoop and HBase
  • Scales to millions of writes per second
  • Add capacity by adding nodes

Read

  • Generate graphs from the GUI
  • Pull from the HTTP API
  • Choose an open source front-end

If that isn’t impressive enough, check out the features added for the 2.0 release:

OpenTSDB has a thriving community who contributed and requested a number of new features. 2.0 has the following new features:

  • Lock-less UID Assignment – Drastically improves write speed when storing new metrics, tag names, or values
  • Restful API – Provides access to all of OpenTSDB’s features as well as offering new options, defaulting to JSON
  • Cross Origin Resource Sharing – For the API so you can make AJAX calls easily
  • Store Data Via HTTP – Write data points over HTTP as an alternative to Telnet
  • Configuration File – A key/value file shared by the TSD and command line tools
  • Pluggable Serializers – Enable different inputs and outputs for the API
  • Annotations – Record meta data about specific time series or data points
  • Meta Data – Record meta data for each time series, metrics, tag names, or values
  • Trees – Flatten metric and tag combinations into a single name for navigation or usage with different tools
  • Search Plugins – Send meta data to search engines to delve into your data and figure out what’s in your database
  • Real-Time Publishing Plugin – Send data to external systems as they arrive to your TSD
  • Ingest Plugins – Accept data points in different formats
  • Millisecond Resolution – Optionally store data with millisecond precision
  • Variable Length Encoding – Use less storage space for smaller integer values
  • Non-Interpolating Aggregation Functions – For situations where you require raw data
  • Rate Counter Calculations – Handle roll-over and anomaly supression
  • Additional Statistics – Including the number of UIDs assigned and available

I suppose traffic patterns (license plates) are a form of time series data. Yes?
