Abstract: Provided are techniques for building and using a sparse Time Series Database (TSDB). Time series records are received from a native TSDB, where each of the time series records includes a timestamp and one or more tags. Timeslots are determined for shards for the sparse TSDB based on the timestamp included in each of the time series records. The sparse TSDB is built by creating the shards for the determined timeslots and storing the time series records in the shards, while filling in empty ranges in the shards. A query that specifies at least one of the one or more tags is received. It is determined whether to execute the query against the sparse TSDB, and, in response to a determination to execute the query against the sparse TSDB, the query is executed against the sparse TSDB to generate results that are returned.

Abstract: A serverless computing-based, continuous gateway watch of a data store for data change process is provided. The process includes the gateway interface of the computing environment receiving a watch request from a user system to monitor the data store for data change. Based on receiving the watch request, the gateway interface invokes a serverless setup service to establish a connection between the gateway interface and the data store of the computing environment to be monitored for data change. Based on receiving, at the gateway interface, a data change indication from the data store, the gateway interface invokes a serverless message process service to mutate the data change indication from the data store into a mutated data change message indicative of a data change at the data store for return to the user system pursuant to the watch request, with the serverless message process service terminating thereafter.

Abstract: A computer implemented method manages a topology for a network computing system. A number of processor units determines tasks for a workload to be performed by computing devices in the network computing system. The number of processor units creates the topology for performing the tasks in the workload. The topology comprises nodes representing the tasks assigned to the computing devices. The nodes are connected to each other based on an execution order for the tasks, and the topology has alternative paths for performing the tasks for the workload. The number of processor units determines energy consumption for the alternative paths in the topology. The number of processor units selects a particular path from the alternative paths for performing the tasks for the workload based on the energy consumption for the alternative paths.
