A brokering architecture is disclosed. The brokering architecture focuses on storing changes to the building system. Measurements are quantized to an integer representation and encoded so that time series data is stored in a series of changes of value. The encoded timeseries may be compressed using compression schemes that advantageously make use of small changes between adjacent stored values of the timeseries. Compressed timeseries values allow more data to be stored in RAM or other short-term storage and provide a more responsive system to control physical systems like buildings. Timeseries compression may be provided through extensions accessed through a structured data format on the message bus. Extensions can cause the execution of certain instructions based on the fields in the structured data and may be used to provide functionality in addition to timeseries compression including BACnet communications, predictions, and simulations.

Building system with brokering architecture to provide timeseries compression and extensions

A building automation system (BAS) with microservice architecture. The system includes a server platform configured to perform various operations within the building automation system. The server platform includes a microservices platform configured to execute various processes within the BAS. The microservices platform includes a plurality of nodes where each node is configured to run one or more services as separate processes. The microservices platform further includes a message bus configured to control communication between processes and an orchestration network configured to control communication between the plurality of nodes. The server platform further includes a common data model (CDM) shared between the plurality of nodes where the CDM consists of metadata of the BAS. The server platform further includes a container orchestration platform configured to manage and control the plurality of nodes.
