Supercharged PostgreSQL
Rely on the same PostgreSQL you know and love, with full SQL, rock-solid reliability, and the largest ecosystem of developer and management tools.
- Full SQL, powerful analytics, no restrictions
- Leverage your favorite Postgres extensions
- Entire toolset works: ORMs, connectors, JDBC, applications
- Connect Prometheus for all your observability metrics
- Visualize data using the dashboards you love
-- What’s the memory consumption for
-- each of my containers right now?
SELECT
time_bucket('10 seconds', time) AS period,
container_id, avg(free_mem), min(free_mem)
FROM metrics
WHERE time > NOW () - interval '10 minutes'
GROUP BY period, container_id
ORDER BY period DESC, container_id;Accelerated Performance
Achieve 10-100x faster queries than Clickhouse, PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, MongoDB, and Timestream. Leverage query parallelization, continuous aggregates, and other optimizations.
- Achieve 10X faster inserts and ingest 1.5M+ more metrics per second per server for high-cardinality workloads
- Optimized time-series queries and advanced time-series analytics
- Real-time insights over automated continuous aggregations
- Fast scans over compressed columnar storage
- Query faster over longer time horizons with downsampling
Massive scale
Write millions of data points per second. Store 100s of terabytes on a single node or petabytes across multiple nodes. Handle high-cardinality data easily.
- Store 100s of billions of rows and 10s of TBs of data per server
- Record billions of distinct time-series, collect everything you need
- Best-of-breed datatype-specific compression for 16x storage capacity
- Create distributed hypertables across many TimescaleDB nodes
- Parallelize scans and aggregation queries across many nodes
Relational and time-series, together
Simplify your stack and store your relational data alongside time-series data. Ask more complex queries, build more powerful applications faster.
- Centralize storage of time-series, application, and sensor data
- Correlate metrics with business and system-of-record data
- Unlimited metadata, don’t worry about cardinality of labels
- Perform JOINs to understand relations with time-series
- Ensure clean, correct data with foreign keys and constraints

FAQ
TimescaleDB is the leading open-source relational database for time-series. It builds on the rock-solid reliability of PostgreSQL, expanding its performance and scalability to meet the demands of data-intensive applications dealing with time-series data. Developers often tell us that TimescaleDB is "PostgreSQL with super-powers"!
We’ve written a guide here. All it takes is a single command!
If you are hosting it in your own instances, TimescaleDB is 100% free to use - you can install it here. If you prefer to use a managed solution, check out Timescale Cloud, our database platform for relational and time-series data built on TimescaleDB and PostgreSQL.
TimescaleDB is built on PostgreSQL, so you can seamlessly integrate TimescaleDB with any PostgreSQL-compatible platform or with any SQL-speaking tool. As we like to say: if it works with PostgreSQL, it works with TimescaleDB. For example, you can use TimescaleDB with Grafana, Docker, Datadog, Plotly, Debezium, Looker, MADlib, Tableau, Kafka, OmniDB, SQLAlchemy, Chartio, Mode, Zabbix and Sensu.
