sounds interesting; i am currently using hbase for similar purposes. Do "tables" have to be created explicitly, or can I just store a value into a timeseries, and if the ts doesn't exist yet it will be created?
- pauldix 13y agoYou can just write data in on the fly. Time series get created when you write the first point. You also can create new columns on the fly. And there's no enforcement of a data type across all values for a given column. That's on the user.
- genericacct 13y agoGreat. I am looking at integrating it into my fork of ethercalc so i can store not just the metrics but also some of the indicators and statistics i compute on them. For my use cases (R and spreadsheets) it would be handy if i could get results in csv format straight from the API when i make a query.
- pauldix 13y agoWe'll add the CSV response to the todo list. You're not the first person to request it and it makes total sense.
