Code

Due to the massive amount of time series managed at the edge and the disconnected nature of operations, a native time series database is necessary as part of EdgeX due to MongoDB limitations with time series.

The TSDB is useful for local storage and shall be easily interfaced with open source visualization tools (e.g. Grafana) and open source analytics platforms (e.g. Flink).
