TimeBase Community Edition on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by cloudimg

TimeBase Community Edition is an event oriented time series database and real time messaging server designed for financial market data, governed by the Fintech Open Source Foundation (FINOS). Data is organised into user defined streams, and the same engine acts as both a historical time series store and a live streaming bus: producers write time stamped messages into a stream and consumers read them back or subscribe to them as they arrive.

What cloudimg gives you

• The official FINOS TimeBase CE 6.2.34 server run as a managed service on Docker Engine, on a hardened, fully patched Ubuntu 24.04 LTS base
• The version matched TimeBase client shell on the box for writing and querying time series data
• A browser Web Admin, reached over TLS through an nginx reverse proxy, showing live connections, cursors and loaders
• Automatic security updates enabled for ongoing protection

Secure by default

TimeBase Community Edition ships with authentication disabled; cloudimg turns it on. The image enables TimeBase user access control and generates a unique administrator password on the first boot of every VM, written to a root only file, so there is no default login and no two instances share a secret. The native data protocol is bound to the loopback interface only, and the Web Admin is served over TLS with a certificate minted per instance, so the engine is not exposed to the network until you choose to open it to your own application subnet. The database ships empty.

Licensing

TimeBase Community Edition is Apache-2.0, free and open source, shipped unmodified with no per seat fee. The cloudimg charge covers packaging, security patching, image maintenance and 24/7 support.
