time-series distributed-systems iot performance-optimization
Prompt
Create a scalable time-series database architecture for industrial IoT sensor data that can handle 50,000 sensor readings per second across multiple manufacturing plants. Design a schema that supports multi-dimensional tagging, automatic data retention policies, and enables real-time anomaly detection. Include sharding strategies, compression techniques, and a migration plan from a traditional RDBMS to a distributed time-series solution like TimescaleDB or InfluxDB.
