1. A system for time series data storage, querying and analysis, comprising: a data generator that produces time stamped data associated with the behavior of a plurality of assets; an ingester configured to receive the time stamped data from the data generator, the ingester configured to read the received time stamped data and to create a data block and an index associated with the received time stamped data; an index database configured to receive and store the index received from the ingester; a time series database configured to receive the data blocks from the ingester, the time series database storing the data blocks across a plurality of computing devices; a query layer configured to: receive a query that specifies criteria defining a set of data to be retrieved from the system and an analysis to be performed on that data; request from the index database the indices associated with the data blocks stored in the time series database needed to evaluate the query; prepare a sub-query that will produce appropriate data matching the criteria, the sub-query including the criteria and a logical operation to be performed on data matching the criteria; and send the sub-query to each of the computing devices that corresponds to the data blocks identified in the request step, above; an evaluator running on each of the plurality of computing devices, the evaluator configured to: receive the sub-query from the query layer; evaluate the criteria specified in the sub-query with respect to the data blocks stored on the same computing device as the evaluator to select a subset of data; and perform the logical operation specified in the sub-query on the subset of data to produce a sub-result; and an output handler configured to receive the sub-results produced in response to each sub-query and combine them into a query result.
