Time-series data grows exponentially, but query performance shouldn't degrade proportionally. Traditional time-series databases struggle with text-heavy observability workloads.
Advanced Indexing for Time-Series
GreptimeDB time-series capabilities now include sophisticated full-text indexing, bridging the gap between structured metrics and unstructured logs.
Dual-Engine Architecture Benefits
The Flow Engine enhancement supports:
- Batching mode for historical analysis
- Streaming mode for real-time processing
- Time-series database optimization
