Time series databases (TSDB)

A time series database is a software system that stores and manages time-stamped data, where each entry is associated with a specific point in time.

Although it is possible to store time series data in many different database types, the design of these systems is distinct from relational databases, in which relationships between data points are implemented through referential models, rather than being implicit through timestamps. Therefore, time series databases are a type of NoSQL database.
