What is Apache TsFile?

TsFile 2.5 adds Go to its Java, C++ and Python implementations.

Apache TsFile is the columnar time-series file format underneath IoTDB. The 2.x line has concentrated on the native and Python ends: Arrow-compatible results into Python DataFrames in 2.3.0, CSV, Parquet and Arrow conversion scripts in 2.3.1, SIMD and parallel reads in 2.4.0, and in October 2.5.0 with table-model read and write APIs for Go plus persistent dataset indexes. The old 1.1 line still gets occasional backport releases, most recently 1.1.4 in September.

What is ManageEngine Log360?

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

Apache TsFile vs ManageEngine Log360: editorial side-by-side

A
Apache TsFile
ANALYTICS
2.5

TsFile 2.5 adds Go to its Java, C++ and Python implementations.

◆ Current state

Apache TsFile is the columnar time-series file format underneath IoTDB. The 2.x line has concentrated on the native and Python ends: Arrow-compatible results into Python DataFrames in 2.3.0, CSV, Parquet and Arrow conversion scripts in 2.3.1, SIMD and parallel reads in 2.4.0, and in October 2.5.0 with table-model read and write APIs for Go plus persistent dataset indexes. The old 1.1 line still gets occasional backport releases, most recently 1.1.4 in September.

◆ Where it's heading

TsFile is being shaped into an interchange format that non-JVM tools can read and write directly, with each release widening language coverage or speeding up the native path. The 1.1 backports show IoTDB users on older versions are still being supported.

◆ Prediction

Expect a 2.5.x patch release fixing the new Go and index features, following the pattern of 2.3.1 after 2.3.0.

M0.0

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

◆ Current state

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

◆ Where it's heading

The migration to the unified architecture is generating its own stream of fixes, while security patches continue at a monthly pace. Integrations are moving into marketplace extensions rather than core builds.

◆ Prediction

More hotfix builds for the unified migration are likely; no new build has appeared in the feed since mid-September.
