“This AMI comes with Riak TS pre-installed and fine-tuned for optimal performance on AWS. Riak TS is a specialized time series database engineered for resilience, scalability, and operational simplicity. Notably, it stands as the only enterprise-grade NoSQL database purpose-built for handling IoT and time series data.
Riak TS achieves exceptional read and write speeds by co-locating data, making it exceptionally well-suited for ingesting, transforming, storing, and analyzing extensive volumes of time series data. Like its counterpart, Riak TS operates in a masterless manner and uniformly distributes data across the cluster. The addition or removal of nodes incurs minimal data reshuffling and zero downtime.
This database system maintains data redundancy with a default setting of three replicas, and it incorporates various features to ensure continued availability, even in cases of node failures or network partitions. Riak TS employs a straightforward key/value data model and supports both HTTP and Protocol Buffers client (PBC) APIs. It further offers a comprehensive selection of client libraries for added versatility.”
