Fascinating! I've been looking for a faster TSDB for our projects. Thanks for sharing.

I've heard InfluxDB has some GPU acceleration support as well. Anyone tried it out here?

Just read about the differences between Influx and Timescale. Loving how Timescale handles query optimization.

Also, Influx requires A LOT more RAM compared to Timescale for a similar amount of data. Kudos to the Timescale team.

Yeah, just tried it yesterday - GPU acceleration did make a big difference. I'm curious to see how this one compares.

This could be a significant game changer for large time-series datasets. Wonder which companies are already tinkering with it.

We're experimenting with it at BigCorp. Promising performance so far. Definitely worth looking into, if you're working with massive data.

From your experience, do you see there being any downsides in terms of longevity, maintenance, or ease of use with the new DB?

Are there any benchmarks (with sources) that compare Timescale's new TSDB with other mainstream solutions?

Quite a few depending on use-case. Will add to the main post. Thanks for the question!

How does the DB deal with outliers in a series? Does it handle them automatically or does the user needs to intervene?

As per the documentation provided, the DB automatically detects and takes care of outliers in series.

Did they discuss integration with parallel processing libraries or stream tools, like Apache Spark, Apache Flink, etc.?

The team mentioned some work done for native integration with Apache Spark specifically. More in the comments later today.

Thanks! Excited to explore integration with Spark. It's awesome knowing the Timescale team's already dived deep into that.

Could you please share how you'd deploy the DB in a Kubernetes cluster, if you have a preferred method?
