Migrate Historian from InfluxDB to REDIS Streams? #483

Closed TShapinsky closed 6 months ago

TShapinsky commented 7 months ago

If we use REDIS streams to communicate run outputs we get historian functionality for free.

Caveat is that Redis Stream operations are classified as "slow". Influxdb writes are currently a major component limiting the maximum speed of runs in Alfalfa.

Discussion today:

  1. NREL Alfalfa deployments will likely integrate with broader data analysis and viz tooling for ARIES
  2. For now, main historian-related pain point is ability to download history CSV from alfalfa-client #434

Oh no, it wasn't supposed to say complete. I was just closing because we decided that we wouldn't go down this route.
