Using Blob Loader for Direct Insertion into the Storage Tier
The separate blob loader described in
Chapter 4
(see
Figure 4-3
)
is ideal for ingesting data to
set up a test at scale. The blob loader design has been shown to provide more than 1,000-fold
acceleration of data loading over the rate achieved by unmodified Open TSDB's hybrid wide
table/blob design as shown in
Figure 4-1
. The advantages of this direct-insertion approach
are especially apparent when you imagine plotting the load times for the different ap-
proaches, as shown in
Figure 5-1
.
