Which NoSQL is used by Mango?
-
Hi @Nurr
Mango uses its own proprietary NoSQL db built into mango, there is no connection to a separate DB. The NoSQL database does not have tables.
-
Hi @CraigWeb,
Regarding the NoSQL db (OR MangoNoSQL dB), is there any connectionstring or similar feature that Mango ES can connect to a remote dB ? Customer does not prefer to host the dB for the point values on the application server.
Thanks,

Hi Nur
There is a new module called timeScaleDatabase which has been developed. Which could solve your problem.
-
Hi @CraigWeb,
Is timeScaleDatabase available only for Mango v4?
Is there documentation on how to use for timeScaleDatabase?Thanks!
-
Hi Nurr
It is still in beta version. I assume it will be released with v4 including documentation.

@craigweb Hi,
We have installed the Mango v4.0.0.beta.3 and the timeScaleDatabase module. How do we use timeScaleDatabase in order to connect to a remote NoSQL dB?
Thanks!
-
@nurr I have the same question.How do we use timeScaleDatabase in v4.0.0.beta.3
-
Hi @dage, this module is not ready to use.
-
@craigweb Is timeScaleDatabase ready? Any material on how to use it? I am interested in hosting the DB for the point values on another server apart from the application server.

Hi Ricardo,
Sorry to bear disappointing news, but no, the Timescale module is not ready for use. It was developed for a very specific internal use case and was never intended to be released as a general purpose module.
However we are currently developing support for other time series databases, it is very likely this will include Timescale support. I cannot give you 100% confirmation on this, or a release date, but it should ship with Mango 4.3 when it is released.

@jared-wiltshire Thank you for your update. I came across InfluxDB (https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/). It may be a good fit.
