Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for receiving metric data of a cloud system periodically; transforming the metric data of each type into a byte array using mapping tables, wherein the byte array is an encoded format of the metric data, where each field of the metric data is encoded as a field ID and a field type ID that are short integer variables; merging and storing the byte arrays of multiple metric data into a binary file, wherein the binary file comprises multiple blocks with each block comprising multiple byte arrays; generating indexes for common fields of different metric data in the binary file; receiving a retrieval request requesting metric records including a common field of a particular value; determining storage locations of one or more metric records satisfying the retrieval request; and obtaining the one or more metric records from the binary file using the corresponding storage locations.
