Hi. Welcome to the forum.

Difficult to offer precise help when you provide so little detail, but something like this is one approach...

Store your data in flow or global context. (See nodered documentation)

Use an inject or Cron node set to fire every 15m. Retrieve values from context. Make a SQL INSERT, send to database.
