Patent number: 10509785Abstract: A database system stores data as hypertables that represent partitioned database tables. Each hypertable comprises chunks of data that may be distributed across multiple locations, each location comprising at least a storage device. The database system provides an interface that allows database queries seamlessly to hypertables as well as standard tables. The database system dynamically creates chunks as records are added to a hypertable. The database system defines a new partitioning strategy if the storage configuration of the database system is changed by adding new locations or removing existing locations. The records added to the hypertable before the storage configuration was changed continue to be stored as chunks distributed according to the previous partitioning policy.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2018Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: Timescale, Inc.Inventors: Matvey Arye, Michael J. Freedman, Robert Kiefer, Ajay A. Kulkarni, Erik Nordström
