What's new in 1.13.0?​

This release introduces a new conditional query API that should significantly improve your experience when querying or removing records. The new conditional queries allow you to use logical and comparison operators to filter records by labels. Previously, you could only filter records by labels using the include and exclude options, which were limited to exact matches. This means that you had to classify your records in advance at the ingest stage to be able to filter them later. Now, all you have to do is label your records with metric labels and then use the conditional queries to filter them by any condition you want.

The MQTT protocol is widely used in IoT applications because of its simplicity and ability to connect different data sources to applications using a publish/subscribe model. While many MQTT brokers support persistent sessions and can store message history while an MQTT client is unavailable, there may be cases where data needs to be stored for a longer period of time. In such cases it is recommended to use a time series database. There are many options available, but if you need to store unstructured data such as images, sensor data or Protobuf messages, you should consider using ReductStore as a MQTT database. It is a time series database specifically designed to store large amounts of unstructured data, optimised for IoT and edge computing.

ReductStore provides client SDKs for many programming languages to integrate it into your infrastructure. For this example, we will use the JavaScript client SDK.

Let's build a simple application to understand how to keep a history of MQTT messages using ReductStore and Node.js.
