IOx Query Layer

The IOx query layer is responsible for translating query requests from different query languages and planning and executing them against Chunks stored across various IOx storage systems.

Query Frontends

  • SQL
  • Storage gRPC
  • Flux (possibly in the future)
  • InfluxQL (possibly in the future)
  • Others (possibly in the future)

Sources of Chunk data

  • ReadBuffer
  • MutableBuffer
  • Parquet Files
  • Others (possibly in the future, like Remote Chunk?)

The goal is to use the shared query / plan representation in order to avoid N*M combinations of language and Chunk source.

Thus query planning is implemented in terms of traits, and those traits are implemented by different chunk implementations.

Among other things, this means that this crate should not depend directly on the ReadBuffer or the MutableBuffer.
