--><h1 id="last-query" tabindex="-1"><a class="header-anchor" href="#last-query" aria-hidden="true">#</a> Last Query</h1><p>The last query is a special type of query in Apache IoTDB. It returns the data point with the largest timestamp of the specified time series. In other word, it returns the latest state of a time series. This feature is especially important in IoT data analysis scenarios. To meet the performance requirement of real-time device monitoring systems, Apache IoTDB caches the latest values of all time series to achieve microsecond read latency.</p><p>The last query is to return the most recent data point of the given timeseries in a three column format.</p><p>The SQL syntax is defined as:</p><div class="language-sql line-numbers-mode" data-ext="sql"><pre class="language-sql"><code><span class="token keyword">select</span> <span class="token keyword">last</span> <span class="token operator">&lt;</span>Path<span class="token operator">&gt;</span> <span class="token punctuation">[</span>COMMA <span class="token operator">&lt;</span>Path<span class="token operator">&gt;</span><span class="token punctuation">]</span><span class="token operator">*</span> <span class="token keyword">from</span> <span class="token operator">&lt;</span> PrefixPath <span class="token operator">&gt;</span> <span class="token punctuation">[</span>COMMA <span class="token operator">&lt;</span> PrefixPath <span class="token operator">&gt;</span><span class="token punctuation">]</span><span class="token operator">*</span> <span class="token operator">&lt;</span>WhereClause<span class="token operator">&gt;</span> <span class="token punctuation">[</span><span class="token keyword">ORDER</span> <span class="token keyword">BY</span> TIMESERIES <span class="token punctuation">(</span><span class="token keyword">DESC</span> <span class="token operator">|</span> <span class="token keyword">ASC</span><span class="token punctuation">)</span>?<span class="token punctuation">]</span>
