In this talk, we will discuss major technical challenges developers face when dealing with time series data and QuestDB’s design principles that are meant to solve these challenges. We will then go through QuestDB’s performance focused architecture and cover topics like storage model, transactions, in-order and out-of-order ingestion, concurrency control, and network interfaces.
