TVStore

License

TVStore is a time-series store that can automatically bound storage space to a user-provided size. It is capable of constraining storage costs as large volumes of data keep flowing into a single database instance at a high speed.

TVStore incorporates a novel time-varying compression framework to compress older data by higher ratios and newer data by lower ratios, while maintaining high accuracy in many workloads. Its decisions on storage bounding are properly chosen based on tight theoretical bounds to minimize information loss and computation cost. The implementation of TVStore builds upon Apache IoTDB. For details see our paper at FAST'22:

  • Yanzhe An, Yue Su, Yuqing Zhu, and Jianmin Wang. "TVStore: Automatically Bounding Time Series Storage via Time-Varying Compression." In 20th USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies (FAST 22). 2022. [pdf]

TVStore is extensively evaluated using TVStore-benchmark. Along the same lines, the authors have also the following related works:

  • IginX: an open-source clustering system for multi-dimensional scaling of standalone time series databases, e.g., TVStore
  • Record-breaking benchmarking: tuning a cluster of IginX and IoTDB(by a special branch) instances to get a record-breaking result in the TPCx-IoT benchmarking tests

Quick Start

This short guide will walk you through the basic process of using TVStore.

Prerequisites

To use TVstore, you need to have:

  1. Java >= 1.8 (1.8, 11, and 13 are verified. Please make sure the environment path has been set)
  2. Maven >= 3.1 (If you want to compile and install TVstore from source code)
  3. Set the max open files num as 65535 to avoid "too many open files" problem.

Build from source

You can download the source code from:

git clone https://github.com/thulab/TVStore

Under the root path of TVStore:

> mvn clean package -DskipTests

Then the binary version (including both server and client) can be found at distribution/target/apache-iotdb-{project.version}-incubating-bin.zip

NOTE: Directories "service-rpc/target/generated-sources/thrift" and "server/target/generated-sources/antlr3" need to be added to sources roots to avoid compilation errors in IDE.

Configurations

configuration files are under "conf" folder

  • environment config module (iotdb-env.bat, iotdb-env.sh),
  • system config module (tsfile-format.properties, iotdb-engine.properties)
  • log config module (logback.xml).

# compress_ttl in ms, if timestamp of data is within compress_ttl, then the data won't be compressed.

Start

You can go through the following step to test the installation, if there is no error after execution, the installation is completed.

Start TVStore

Users can start IoTDB by the start-server script under the sbin folder.

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/start-server.sh

# Windows
> sbin\start-server.bat

Use TVStore

Use Cli

TVStore offers different ways to interact with server, here we introduce basic steps of using Cli tool to insrert and query data.

After installing TVstore, there is a default user 'root', its default password is also 'root'. Users can use this default user to login Cli to use TVStore. The startup script of Cli is the start-client script in the folder sbin. When executing the script, user should assign IP, PORT, USER_NAME and PASSWORD. The default parameters are "-h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw -root".

Here is the command for starting the Cli:

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/start-client.sh -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw root

# Windows
> sbin\start-client.bat -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw root

The command line client is interactive so if everything is ready you should see the welcome logo and statements:

 _____       _________  ______   ______
|_   _|     |  _   _  ||_   _ `.|_   _ \
  | |   .--.|_/ | | \_|  | | `. \ | |_) |
  | | / .'`\ \  | |      | |  | | |  __'.
 _| |_| \__. | _| |_    _| |_.' /_| |__) |
|_____|'.__.' |_____|  |______.'|_______/  version x.x.x


IoTDB> login successfully
IoTDB>

Stop TVStore

The server can be stopped with ctrl-C or the following script:

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/stop-server.sh

# Windows
> sbin\stop-server.bat

Only build server

Under the root path of incubator-iotdb:

> mvn clean package -pl server -am -DskipTests

After build, the IoTDB server will be at the folder "server/target/iotdb-server-{project.version}".

Only build client

Under the root path of incubator-iotdb:

> mvn clean package -pl client -am -DskipTests

After build, the IoTDB client will be at the folder "client/target/iotdb-client-{project.version}".
