I am working on a customer’s system where the requirement is to store a lot of timeseries data from different sensors.
For performance reasons we are going to use SSD, and therefore there is a list of requirements for the architecture:
- Provide high insertion rate
- Provide a good compression rate to store more data on expensive SSDs
- Engine should be SSD friendly (less writes per timeperiod to help with SSD wear)
- Provide a reasonable response time (within ~50 ms) on SELECT queries on hot recently inserted data
Looking on these requirements I actually think that TokuDB might
be a good fit for this task.
There are several aspects to consider. This time I want to compare TokuDB vs InnoDB on an initial load time and space consumption.
Let’s …
