Abstract: Systems and methods for storing and retrieving data are disclosed where creation of new partitions in a database is driven by write requests. The requests can arrive at pseudo random moments of time. Each partition in the database is associated with a time interval. Different time intervals do not need to be consecutive. Whenever a write request is obtained, the system determines whether the write request is received within a latest partition time interval defined by start and end times. If yes, the data is written into a database partition corresponding to that interval. If not, a new partition is created having associated time interval with its own start and end times defining a new partition time interval. The process is repeated as new data is streaming in.
