RDB Archiver
RDB Archiver is the new new version of the EPICS Archiver which was widely used by the EPICS community. EPICS Archiver kept the history in data file and had some kind of indexing scheme. The new RDB Archiver is a part of the CSS and, as the name suggests, it utilizes databases to keep the archive engine configurations and the archived values. RDB Archiver can be used with both MySQL and Oracle (and probably others as well). Folks at ANL tested the RDB Archiver archiver with MySQL and I followed their example, and below you can find what I observed.
