Daniel
11/28/2025, 7:43 PMok yeah, it’s a fluent-bit issue

11/28/2025, 7:44 PMhow does greptime handle real-time – does it keep some ingestion data in memory or does it do a full e2e cycle for any query. if you write in real-time does that mean its closing files on the remote s3 every second, or can it append-data?
