Timescale
Time-Series PostgreSQL at Petabyte Scale
Timescale is a cloud database platform built on PostgreSQL, optimized for time-series data such as metrics, sensor readings, and event streams at petabyte scale. It offers tiered storage (hot SSD plus low-cost object storage), hybrid search, and native SQL access. The platform is aimed at enterprises needing high-performance, cost-efficient storage and querying of trillions of data points daily.
Timescale extends PostgreSQL with time-series optimizations, tiered hot/cold storage on object storage, and hybrid search, all accessible via standard SQL, APIs, CLI, and UI.
