InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
A bit 'heretical' on this sub, but if you just want continent shaped for small scale maps many will recommend Natural Earth rather than OSM for those applications. I think there's a fair amount of generalisation, but that's normally what you want for overviews.
