Every time-series database makes a set of storage design decisions: how to lay out rows, when to compress, what to partition on. These decisions determine cost and query performance more than the choice of database itself. This article works through those fundamentals from first principles, using widely available tools like PostgreSQL and Apache Parquet to make each trade-off measurable.

Two recent Linux kernel vulnerabilities have been disclosed: Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) on April 29, 2026, and Dirty Frag (CVE-2026-43284 and CVE-2026-43500) on May 7, 2026. Both allow local users to gain root access, affecting multiple Linux distributions. These vulnerabilities exploit flaws in the page cache via different subsystems, necessitating immediate patching by affected organizations.
