An experimental analytics database aiming to set a new standard for query performance and storage efficiency on commodity hardware. See How to Analyze Billions of Records per Second on a Single Desktop PC and How to Read 100s of Millions of Records per Second from a Single Disk for an overview of current capabilities. Download the latest binary release, which can be run from the command line on most x64 Linux systems, including Windows Subsystem for Linux. When loading .csv or .csv.gz files with --load, the first line of each file is assumed to be a header containing the names for all columns. The type of each column will be derived automatically, but this might break for columns that contain a mixture of numbers/strings/empty entries. To persist data to disk in LocustDB's internal storage format (which allows fast queries from disk after the initial load), specify the storage location with --db-path.

Features

  • The trade-off between performance and storage efficiency is configurable
  • Query performance for analytics workloads
  • LocustDB automatically achieves spectacular compression ratios
  • Minimal indexing overhead
  • Requires less machines to store the same amount of data
  • New data is available for queries within seconds
