Claim 11:
12. A time series data monitoring system for handling of index update of time series data, the time series data monitoring system comprising:
a plurality of nodes comprising a plurality of ingestion nodes and a plurality of query nodes, wherein the plurality of ingestion nodes is configured to process the time series data for persistence and indexing and wherein each query node of the plurality of query nodes maintains a locally stored index structure and is configured to receive and process queries for searching the time series data using the locally stored index structure, each node of the plurality of nodes comprising a data storage unit and a processor communicatively coupled with the data storage unit, an ingestion node of the plurality of ingestion nodes is configured to:
receive time series data;
store the time series data at a time series database of the time series data monitoring system;
determine an index update based on the time series data at the ingestion node;
control storage of the index update to an index database of the time series data monitoring system; and
forward the index update to the plurality of query nodes of the time series data monitoring system; and

a query node of the plurality of query nodes is configured to:
receive a query; and
responsive to receiving the query at the query node, utilize the locally stored index structure of the query node to identify a location of data point responsive to the query at the time series database.
