Battery Storage Workshop
Benchmark Your Data Stack: Ingest 400,000 Points/Second in Real Time
📅 Date: Wednesday, June 18th, 2025
🕒 Time: 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM PDT (6:00 PM to 7:30 PM CET)
🌐 Location: Online (Zoom)
Join this hands-on workshop and see how TDengine handles high-throughput battery telemetry data in real time. Follow along with live benchmarks and test it yourself using our public GitHub repo.
What You’ll Do
This 90-minute workshop is divided into two focused sections:
Section 1: Live Performance Demo
Solutions Architect Joel Brass will walk through a real EMS benchmark:
- Ingesting 400,000 data points per second
- Monitoring CPU load, ingestion volume, and compression ratio
- Demonstrating query latency in real time
- Explaining the architecture behind the benchmark setup
Section 2: Hands-On Exercise (Bring Your Laptop)
Using a Docker Compose setup and our open-source GitHub repo, you’ll:
- Simulate a real EMS environment with 50+ battery units streaming telemetry
- Watch data stream into your instance of TDengine at a high, consistent rate
- Run real-time queries to calculate KPIs like online rate and unit availability
- Inspect ingestion volume, query speed, and see how your laptop handles real telemetry loads
- No prior experience required — just copy, run, and explore
This isn’t a canned demo — it’s a fully interactive system you control, and you can see changes you make reflected in real time.
What You’ll Learn
- How TDengine performs under high-frequency workloads
- Real-time ingestion, query, and compression behavior
- How to quickly test TDengine using your own machine
- How your current system compares — and where bottlenecks might be
What You’ll Need
- A laptop with Docker installed
- Access to GitHub
- No prior TDengine experience required
What You’ll Receive
- GitHub repo with all scripts and test data
- Performance tuning tips and follow-up materials
- Access to a private Slack channel for support
- Optional certificate of participation
