US Patent 12026163 Metric data processing and storage

A query including a time range can be received. The query can be processed to determine data associated with the time range of the query. Cached data can be analyzed to identify a first block of data including metadata identifying a first timestamp associated with the time range of the query. A communication can be generated to include the first timestamp associated with the first block of data. Based on the communication, a second block of data can be received with metadata identifying a second timestamp associated with the time range of the query. A query result can be generated to include the first block of data and the second block of data.
