As of September 7, 2022, the Pilosa project is now FeatureBase. The core of the project remains the same: FeatureBase is the first real-time distributed database built entirely on bitmaps. (More information about updated capabilities and improvements below.)
FeatureBase delivers low-latency query results, regardless of throughput or query volumes, on fresh data with extreme efficiency. It works because bitmaps are faster, simpler, and far more I/O efficient than traditional column-oriented data formats. With FeatureBase, you can ingest data from batch data sources (e.g. S3, CSV, Snowflake, BigQuery, etc.) and/or streaming data sources (e.g. Kafka/Confluent, Kinesis, Pulsar).

make install
to compile the FeatureBase server binary. By default, it will be installed in the go/bin directory.make install
to compile the ingester binaries. By default, they will be installed in the go/bin directory.featurebase server --handler.allowed-origins=http://localhost:3000
to run FeatureBase server with default settings (learn more about configuring FeatureBase at the link below). The --handler.allowed-origins
parameter allows the standalone web UI to talk to the server; this can be omitted if the web UI is not needed.curl localhost:10101/status
to verify the server is running and accessible.Because FeatureBase is built on bitmaps, there is bit of a learning curve to grasp how your data is represented.
