    Abstract: According to embodiments, a data stream including a plurality of time series data is received and metadata objects are extracted from the data stream. The metadata objects are associated with metrics time series (MTS) objects. The metadata objects and MTS objects are stored via separate in-memory data structures in a logical database. The in-memory data structures include information that correlates the metadata objects with the MTS objects. Any updates to the metadata objects will stay with the metadata objects and do not propagate to the MTS objects. A logical in-memory join may be performed to associate the metadata objects with the appropriate MTS object according to the in-memory data structures when a query for an MTS object is received.
