Location store

Persistent storage and real-time distribution of location data

Summary

Location store is a distributed, persistent store for location and orientation of objects: it is designed to support high event rates (for example, for fast-moving objects) and reliable storage of location data (for example, for objects whose position is only ever asserted once). Location store has been proven in mission-critical industrial applications, handling several hundred million individual location events per day and providing reliable persistent storage.

Location store can scale to cover an arbitrarily-large area by splitting it up into multiple cells, each of which is managed by a separate location cell manager service.
