    QuestDB is an open-source column-oriented time series database written in Java and C++.[2][3] Its querying language is SQL-like[4] and adopts a relational model.[5]

    Overview[edit]

    Columnar storage[edit]

    QuestDB uses a column-based storage model and partitions data by time.[6] Data is stored in tables with each column stored in its own file and its own native format.[7] New data is appended to the bottom of each column to allow data to be organically retrieved in the same order that it was ingested.[8][9]

    Off-heap memory management and memory-mapped files[edit]

    The QuestDB storage engine uses memory-mapped files[10] [11] and off-heap memory for the database to minimize overhead introduced by computer science.

    SQL querying language[edit]

    QuestDB queries are written in SQL.[12] QuestDB attempts to implement standard ANSI SQL and to be compatible with PostgreSQL.[13] QuestDB has built several SQL extensions for time-series data workloads.[14]

    Streaming ingestion protocol[edit]

    The InfluxDB Line Protocol (ILP) is a text protocol introduced by InfluxDB to stream and ingest data. It allows concurrent ingestion from multiple sources into tables and dynamic schemas.[15]

    Queries execution[edit]

    QuestDB’s query engine takes advantage of a columnar data layout, SIMD instructions,[6] and multi-threaded processing.[9]

    Official client libraries[edit]

    QuestDB maintains client libraries in the following programming languages: C/C++, JAVA, Golang, Nodejs, Python, Rust, .Net.
