1. A computer-implemented method of managing sensor data in an internet of things (IoT) environment, the method comprising:
receiving, by a processing unit, sensor data from at least one sensing unit in the IoT environment, wherein the sensor data comprises at least one sensor reading and a reading timestamp associated with the sensor reading;
determining whether a conflict associated with the sensor data overwriting an existing record in a database exists based on the reading timestamp, wherein the record is configured for storing the sensor data associated with the at least one sensing unit in time-series format; and
if the conflict exists, merging the sensor data to the record based on an ingestion timestamp associated with the sensor data; and
if no conflict exists, creating a new record for the sensor data in the database.
