Managing IoT data using relational schema and JSON fields, a comparative study

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 6

Abstract

Data transmitted from sensors and actuators as part of the Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure are stored either in database tables following relational schema and normalization forms or in schema less collections using JSON string or binary formulation. As data content in such repositories radically increases, the selection and use of the appropriate storage types are essential in terms of performance and robustness. Furthermore, taking into account the amount of database capacity and processing needed, as well as the exponential increase and use of IoT devices, storage and retrieval of sensory data are the main bottlenecks and set the boundary requirements for IoT services functionalities. This paper tries to identify the performance characteristics that derive from data operations over IoT big datasets that are stored as records in relational schema tables or documents in tables containing JSON fields. Trying to pose an answer to the question which one performs better than the other the PostgreSQL open source relational database has been selected and examined for insert, select/find and aggregation function queries. The comparative study results are presented and thoroughly discussed
