TDengine is an open-source, purpose-built time-series database (TSDB) designed for Industrial IoT and Industry 4.0 applications. It efficiently handles the ingestion, storage, and analysis of massive volumes of time-series data generated by sensors and devices. TDengine serves as an open-source alternative to Kdb+, offering scalable and high-performance solutions for time-series data management.
Key features include:
- High Performance: Optimized for fast data ingestion and querying, achieving up to 10x performance gains compared to traditional databases.
- Scalability: Distributed architecture allows for seamless scaling to accommodate growing data volumes.
- High Compression: Achieves up to 10:1 data compression, reducing storage costs.
- Data Consolidation: Built-in connectors for various industrial data sources (MQTT, Kafka, OPC, PI System) enable zero-code data ingestion and ETL.
- Edge-Cloud Synchronization: Automated data replication between edge and cloud deployments ensures data reliability and consistency.
- TDgpt: Integrated AI agent for time-series forecasting and anomaly detection using SQL.
Use cases:
- Predictive maintenance
- Condition monitoring
- High-frequency data analysis
- Operational efficiency optimization
TDengine targets industrial customers seeking to leverage time-series data for real-time insights and improved decision-making.
