While relational database management systems (RDBMS) are efficient with storing tables, columns, and primary keys in a spreadsheet architecture, they become inefficient when there’s a lot of data input received over a long period of time. Databases designed specifically to store time series data are known as time series databases (TSDB). For example, an RDBMS might look like this.

Real-time data is where information is collected, immediately processed, and then delivered to users to make informed decisions at the moment. Health and fitness wearables such as Fitbits are a prime example of monitoring stats such as heart rate and the number of steps in real-time. These numbers enable both users and health professionals to identify any results, existing or potential risks, without delay.

Here at Grafana Labs, when we’re building integrations for Grafana Cloud, we’re often thinking about how to help users get started on their observability journey.

As citizens, we interact with the government at various points in our lives. Many interactions serve as important rites of passage like obtaining a marriage or business license, claiming a new dependent on a tax return, or filing for retirement benefits. Other interactions serve as a safety net like obtaining financial assistance after a disaster or reporting a scam attempt. No matter the reason for transacting with the government, citizens want the interaction to be as frictionless as possible.
