ServiceNow maintains enormous amounts of time series data on behalf of its customers and seeks a solution to achieve lossless compression in a real-time system. The solution will be evaluated on the basis of compression ratio and read/write speed. We will discuss our process of implementing and evaluating various compression algorithms and our findings regarding their performance.
