About Hawkular Metrics
Hawkular Metrics is a scalable, asynchronous, multi tenant, long term metrics storage engine that uses Cassandra as the data store and REST as the primary interface. This section provides an overview of some of the key features of Hawkular Metrics. The following sections provide in-depth discussions on these as well as other features. Hawkular Metrics is all about scalability. You can run a single instance backed by a single Cassandra node. You can also scale out Cassandra to multiple nodes to handle increasing loads. The Hawkular Metrics server employs a stateless architecture, which makes it easy to scale out as well. This diagram illustrates the various deployment options made possible with Hawkular Metrics' scalable architecture. The upper left shows the simplest deployment with a single Cassandra node and single Hawkular Metrics node. The bottom right picture shows that it is possible to run more Hawkular Metrics nodes than Cassandra nodes.

Riak TS
Riak® TS is the only enterprise-grade NoSQL time series database optimized specifically for IoT and Time Series data. It ingests, transforms, stores, and analyzes massive amounts of time series data. Riak TS is engineered to be faster than Cassandra. The Riak TS masterless architecture is designed to read and write data even in the event of hardware failures or network partitions. Data is evenly distributed across the Riak ring and, by default, there are three replicas of your data. This ensures at least one copy of your data is available for read operations. Riak TS is a distributed system with no central coordinator. It is easy to set up and operate. The masterless architecture makes it easy to add and remove nodes from a cluster. The masterless architecture of Riak TS makes it easy to add and remove nodes from your cluster. You can achieve predictable and near-linear scale by adding nodes using commodity hardware.
