In their own words
openGemini
openGemini is a free, open-source distributed database for storing and analyzing time-series data, including metrics, logs, and traces. Its stated application areas include monitoring and observability, IoT, and operations analysis. The system uses an MPP architecture with ts-sql, ts-meta, and ts-store components that can be scaled independently. Column-based storage, compression, automatic partitioning, and LSM-based techniques are part of its storage design. A built-in AI analysis platform provides real-time anomaly detection. Query options include InfluxQL, PromQL, and GeminiQL; ingestion methods include InfluxDB Line Protocol, Apache Arrow Flight, and Prometheus remote_write. It also provides HTTP APIs for expression and metadata queries and remote reads and writes. Deployment is supported on Linux, macOS, and Windows, as well as through Docker and Kubernetes. Authentication is disabled by default and must be enabled in configuration. PromQL compatibility covers 90% of Prometheus functions and operators, with some unsupported.
