Highlights

RedisTimeSeries 1.6 adds support for aggregating across multiple time series (multi-key). Before this version, queries such as "the maximum observed value of a set of time series" needed to be calculated client-side. Such queries can now be computed server-side, leveraging the heart of RedisGears (LibMR) for clustered databases.

What's new in 1.6

• Introduction of GROUPBY and REDUCE in TS.MRANGE and TS.MREVRANGE to add support for "multi-key aggregation" and support for such aggregations spanning multiple shards, leveraging LibMR. Currently, we support min, max, and sum as reducers and grouping by a label.

• #722, #275 Filter results using FILTER_BY_TS by providing a list of timestamps and FILTER_BY_VALUE by providing a min and a max value (TS.RANGE, TS.REVRANGE, TS.MRANGE, and TS.MREVRANGE).

• #603, #611, #841 Introduction of TS.DEL which allows deleting samples in a time series within two timestamps (inclusive).

• #762 Limit the number of returned labels in the response of read commands (TS.MRANGE, TS.MREVRANGE, and TS.MGET) using SELECTED_LABELS. This can be a significant performance improvement when returning a large number of series.

• #655, #801 Ability to align the aggregation buckets with the requested start, end, or specific timestamp on aggregation queries using ALIGN (TS.RANGE, TS.REVRANGE, TS.MRANGE, and TS.MREVRANGE).

• #675 Add keyspace notifications for all CRUD commands. Check out this test for the details.

• #882 Auto Tiering support.
