BigGraphite is a storage layer for timeseries data. It integrates as a plugin to Graphite. This document describes general principles, for a description of usage see USAGE.md.

None of it is ready for its premiere yet.

There is only one supported backend for now: Cassandra, whose design is described in DESIGN_CASSANDRA.md.

• biggraphite.accessor exposes the public API to store/retrieve metrics
• biggraphite.metadata_cache implements a machine-local cache using LMDB so that one does not need a round-trip for each call to accessor.
• biggraphite.plugins.* implements integration with Carbon and Graphite
• biggraphite.backends.* implements the storage backends (eg: Cassandra-specific code)
