Put A Database On It!

Talkat CascadiaJS 2014 · 2014-07-31..08-01· [databases, web-performance]

Builds a tiny time-series database on top of LevelDB and Node, running on a battery-powered BeagleBone device that samples sensors every 75 ms and aggregates to 1-second means (and decimated sums every 10s). Uses an append-only, versioned storage model and Node stream-based aggregations to compute max/min/derivatives in real time. Device demos mostly work (battery ≈ one day); browser replication is planned but fails due to an unreleased bug.
