IMHO for all this class of problems, that is: need to log big amount of data over time for years, the way to go is not Riak, nor Redis, nor <put your preferred DB name here> but, simply writing to files in append only mode (and when you can, using a fixed size record for fast access later).
There are good reasons IMHO for writing a small networked C server doing this work.
