Abstract: Time-series columnar-based information is received and indexed in a compute infrastructure for cloud-based object storage. The approach leverages a file format that enables highly-performant search and retrieval of the data stored in the cloud. In operation, an indexer receives the time-series information, indexes that information according to the file format, and forwards the indexed information for storage to the object store, where it is stored as a set of time-based partitions. A partition comprises a set of files, namely, a manifest file, a data file, and an index file. These files are structured as a compact instance of a set of raw unstructured data that comprises the partition. Highly-performant information retrieval is enabled in response to a time-bounded query, because operations at a query peer (with respect to one or more partitions) are carried out in real-time during query processing and without requiring retrieval of the data file as a whole.
