I'm Derek, one of the co-founders--that's an interesting way to frame it, I think that makes a lot of sense at a high level.

We're in contact with the TSDB founders (awesome and super smart guys!) and are in the early stages of figuring out an integration that makes sense. That's most likely going to happen.

To anyone interested: we'd love to hear and consider your ideas re: TSDB integration. Feel free to open an issue in either repo (or add to an existing one) and tell us more!

Can you guys join forces and convince AWS to make both of those products available on RDS? :)
So basically AWS will monetize something they have spent 0 resources building and will likely cannibalise the only viable monetization option?
Surely not, AWS has never done anything like that!
The most impactful thing you can do here is ask the RDS team for this. If enough users ask them for it they'll eventually begin seriously considering it :)
Already did!
RE integration: A docker image with both TSDB and PipelineDB extensions and PostGIS, supporting PG11 ;) which is something I will look into doing myself, but lack the time to do so..

The time-series database of a project I'm on uses timescale and it's been great for the quick inserts and the `time_bucket` function has been very useful for aggregate queries.. But moving from aggregations generated on-the-fly to ones updated continuously on data change sounds like it could be awesome for us, so I am v happy to see this article today :-)

That's great to hear, I'll be looking forward to seeing where those talks and collaborations go.
It seems like if you combine pipelinedb with timescaledb, you get continuous query capability of influx ?
