Moreover, applications often need to take aggregation operations between collection points, thus aggregation operations will become complicated. To support aggregation over multiple tables efficiently, the STable (Super Table) concept is introduced by TDengine. STable is an abstract collection for a type of data point. A STable contains a set of points (tables) that have the same schema or data structure, but with different static attributes (tags). To describe a STable (a combination of data collection points of a specific type), in addition to defining the table structure of the collected metrics, it is also necessary to define the schema of its tag. The data type of tags can be int, float, string, and there can be multiple tags, which can be added, deleted, or modified afterward. If the whole system has N different types of data collection points, N STables need to be established.
