TimescaleDB performs quite well. One of our unique insights is that it is quite possible to build a best-in-class time-series database on top of Postgres (although it’s not easy ;-) Here is one benchmark: https://blog.timescale.com/blog/timescaledb-vs-influxdb-for-... There are some challenges with building on Postgres - but what we’ve been able to do is build innovative capabilities that overcome these challenges (Eg columnar compression in a row-oriented store, multi-node scale out). We also have some exciting things that we are announcing this week. Stay tuned :-) PS - Where did you find that PDF? Thought we took it down (it was hard to keep it up to date :-) ) |
