Time-series data has a way of sneaking up on you. It starts as one metrics table, then it is device readings, then it is every event your product emits, and one morning that table is the biggest thing in your database and every dashboard query is slow. TimescaleDB is the classic answer inside PostgreSQL: turn the table into a hypertable, roll it up into continuous aggregates, and age it out with retention and compression. The catch is that all of that has always meant writing and babysitting the SQL yourself. Now it does not. Managed TimescaleDB is live on FoundryDB.
