DalmatinerDB

DalmatinerDB is a metric database written in Erlang. It takes advantage of special properties of metrics to make trade-offs. The goal is to make a store for metric data (time, values) that is fast, has a low overhead, and is easy to query and manage.

What is DalmatinerDB?

DalmatinerDB is a no fluff purpose built metric database. Not a layer put on top of a general purpose database or datastore.

This allows features that otherwise wouldn't be possible:

  • a highly optimized network protocol
  • sequential reads/writes for metrics
  • and a client-server model that takes as much load from the actual store as possible

It leverages ZFS, Riak Core, a rich query language, and Grafana:

  • ZFS is the world's most advanced filesystem. DalmatinerDB is built to take advantage of its features such as integrity, ARC, compression, and ZIL.
  • DalmatinerDB is built on Basho's riak_core, the same distribution framework used by the Riak database allowing for scalability and incredible resilience.
  • The frontend servers give users access to a rich SQL-like query language that's easy to use for both dev and ops.
  • DalmatinerDB integrates nicely with Grafana making it easy to build beautiful dashboards.
