TSDB is a specialized database for managing time series data. Different from the traditional relational database, TSDB is specifically optimized for the storage, query and display of the time series data, so that high data compression capabilities and excellent query performance are achieved. Therefore, TSDB is especially suitable for IoT application scenarios.

Create Demonstration Database

The demonstration database helps users experience various functions of the time series data. The functions and creation method of the demonstration database are the same as that of the normal TSDB. Once created successfully, the system automatically imports weather data into the demonstration database.

The demonstration database contains meteorological simulation data (non-real data) such as temperature, humidity, wind force, PM2.5, and ultraviolet index collected at 8 a.m. each day on air monitoring stations in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou in 2015, the names and zip codes of each city to which each data point belongs, the monitoring station's geographical location (latitude and longitude) and other tags, to help you quickly experience and understand various functions of query, aggregation and chart display of the TSDB.
