Best database to store time series for analysis?


As the title says, which is the best database as a basis for a time series analysis system and why would you recommend it?

There are several different types of timeseries workloads: financial, IoT/sensor data, monitoring metrics, timestamped events, etc.

Also do you need a custom datapoint schema?

Do you need a generic tags/labels/dimensions?

Do you need flexible datatypes, or numeric/float only?

Do you need roll-ups, aggregations, window functions, stream processing, etc.
