Akumuli is a time-series database. The word "akumuli" can be translated from esperanto as "accumulate".

Most open source projects focus on query language and things useful for web-analytics, but they ignore some key characteristics of time series data:

• High write throughput (millions of data-points per second)
• Very late writes can be dropped
• Numeric time-series can be compressed very efficiently
• Periodic time-series can be compressed very efficiently
• Compression is crucial for time-series storage!

• Implements specialized storage engine for time-series data
• Memory mapped and x64 only
• Uses constant amount of disk space (like RRD-tool)
• Crash recovery
• Very high write throughput (about 1M writes per second on single machine)
• Allows unordered writes
• Compressed (specialized compression algorithms for different data elements - timestamps, ids, values)
• Easy to use server software (based on Redis protocol)

• Getting started
• API reference

• Run prerequisites.sh. It will try to do the best thing.
