Namespaces
There are four main interfaces exposed for users to interact with: the Events
interface for timeseries data; the Objects
interface for key/value pairs; the Sets
interface for persisted sorted sets.
All methods expect a namespace
parameter which can be used to slice data into multiple physically separate databases. A namespace
must be first created by making a call to the create(namespace)
method. It is also possible to drop the whole namespace by calling drop(namespace)
after which point any call to that namespace will result in IOException.
