This book, "Concept of Time-Series Database," is born out of a clear necessity. As educator and professional, I observed a significant gap in academic literature. While countless resources exist for relational and NoSQL databases, a dedicated, student-focused guide that navigates the landscape of time-series databases from foundational principles to advanced, practical implementation was conspicuously absent. This text is my endeavor to fill that void, providing a comprehensive roadmap for the next generation of engineers, developers, and data scientists.
and applicable.
