One of the key features of TimescaleDB is its performance, which has been compared to InfluxDB. Time-based data partitioning via hypertables provides for improved query execution and performance when used for time oriented applications. More granular partition definition is achieved through the use of user defined attributes.

TimescaleDB is offered as open source software under the Apache 2.0 license. Additional features are offered in a community edition as source available software under the Timescale License Agreement (TLS).

History

Timescale was founded by Ajay Kulkarni (CEO) and Michael J. Freedman (CTO) in response to their need for a database solution to support internet of things workloads.
