Why use Timescale Cloud for my time series data?
Timescale Cloud is designed to manage large datasets with high ingest rates, fast queries, and better data compression, and includes built-in functions that are critical for valuable time series data analysis.
Supercharge performance
Get 10-100x faster time series queries than vanilla PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, and MongoDB with automatic time-based partitioning and indexing. Give your users answers in milliseconds, not minutes with Timescale Cloud’s continuous aggregates.
Build faster
Scale PostgreSQL for time series, events, and analytics with automatic time-based partitioning and indexing, incrementally-updated materialized views, columnar compression, and time series hyperfunctions.
Scale efficiently
Get 90+% storage savings via columnar compression. Seamlessly tier data into consumption-based object storage, while still querying tiered data in SQL.
