I'm building a lightweight timeseries database/log abstraction called Remits. Remits stands for "Remote Iterator Server". The concept is that you can push Messages to an append only log, but can only query them back out via Iterators. An Iterator is a map, filter, or reduce function that iterates over either a Log or another Iterator. Iterators can be composed and optionally persisted. So the data can be transformed at query time, or persisted and just read from disk. Iterators allow you to start at an arbitrary message, so it can be used as a persisted message queue or similar. I'm only a few commits in, and there isn't much to see yet. I'm really excited by the power and simplicity of the idea, and to have a lightweight Kafka alternative.
