------------------------------------
Summary: More data types support
Key: IOTDB-86
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IOTDB-86
Project: Apache IoTDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: xiangdong Huang
Hi,
Currently IoTDB supports BOOLEAN (Boolean), INT32 (Integer), INT64 (Long
Integer), FLOAT (Single Precision Floating Point), DOUBLE (Double Precision
Floating Point), TEXT (String).
As in many applications, the sensor does not only generate a numeric value,
but also an array.
For example, GPS is a special array which consists of longitude, latitude and
altitude.
For another example, a camera generates photos and will save the feature data
(e.g., a SIFT feature) of each photo into IoTDB.
Except for that, enum is very very common in industrial applications.
So, I think it is great if we can support enum (in an efficient way) and array
data type.
