I'm looking for an alternative to the rrdtool
It need to be fast, reliable, able to handle large amounts of data and have a Java interface. One possibilty I'm investigating is KDB+ Any other ideas?
Have you looked at RRD4J?
EDIT: RRD4J, which Nat pointed out, is a port of JRobin. At this point, it looks like JRobin is more up to date.
