In what way does AQUARIUS Database Designer optimise database use?
The AQUARIUS algorithms reduce storage space needed by 100 times on average by lossless-compressing the data and writing a complete time series and its associated meta-data as a single record. This allows for near-immediate access to any time series. No more waiting for the database to retrieve a hundred thousand row record set. The AQUARIUS Database captures all metadata associated with a time series. This includes all flagging, grading, corrections, audit trails, but also discrete grab sample data, text files and even images that you might want to connect to a time series. And as always, AQUARIUS stores both raw and corrected data, allowing you to “undo” changes at any point in time, even after committing the data to a database. Back to Technical Questions…
