OpenTSDB Reviews

OpenTSDB Description

OpenTSDB is composed of a Time Series Daemon, (TSD), and a set of command-line utilities. OpenTSDB can only be interacted with by one or more TSDs. Each TSD can be run independently. There is no master or shared state, so you can run as many TSDs you need to handle any load. Each TSD uses the HBase open-source database or hosted Google Bigtable service for time-series data storage and retrieval. The data schema is optimized for fast aggregations and retrieval of similar time series, minimizing storage space. The TSD does not require users to directly access the underlying store. The TSD can be communicated with via a simple telnet protocol, an HTTP API, or a built-in GUI. OpenTSDB's first step is to send time series data directly to the TSDs. OpenTSDB has many tools that allow you to pull data from different sources.
