Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for time-series database user authentication and access control. A server computing device receives a request from a remote computing device to access a time-series database coupled to the server computing device, wherein the request includes one or more authentication credentials associated with the remote computing device. The server computing device validates the one or more authentication credentials associated with the remote computing device. The server computing device connects to an access control layer associated with the time-series database. The access control layer authorizes the remote computing device to access data in the time-series database based upon an access profile associated with the validated authentication credentials. The server computing device retrieves data from the time-series database in response to the request.
