👋 Hi everyone, I'm bsmth
I'm a Technical Writer at QuestDB who loves open source software, IoT, and music technology.
📖 I've been building great developer docs in Berlin, Germany, since 2016.🧰 Tools and technologies I like to hack are- Swagger docs
- Python
- Node.js
- Ruby
- Arduino & microcontrollers
- All things IoT
🔬 Projects
I write documentation at QuestDB - a blazing fast open source time series database. The team behind QuestDB have built an incredibly efficient project from the ground up with a lot or attention to performance details.
In order to build a super efficient system, some interesting optimizations are used:
- ZeroGC - zero garbage collection
- SIMD instructions for high parallelization
- Vectorized query execution
- Zero Dependencies - the production artifact is about 3MB
There's a ton of reasons why you might want to use a time series database in your project if you're hacking on small IoT projects or building something larger that's data-intensive.
