The ServiceNow 2019–2020 Clinic team has designed a long-term storage database for time-series data. Incoming data is compressed when added to the long-term storage database, and therefore the data is stored in irregularly sized segments. The team has developed an efficient indexing strategy to access compressed blocks of time-series data in the database.
