PostgreSQL ++ for time series and events | Timescale

🚀 Introducing RTA Bench: A Real-Time Analytics Benchmark for Customer-Facing Apps 📊

Modern Postgres
for Speed, Scale, and AI

Over 3 million Timescale databases power IoT, AI, crypto and dev tool applications. Still Postgres, but faster, scalable, and easier to use.

Console UI

Time series, events, and analytics

For ingesting and querying vast amounts of live data. Our hybrid row-columnar engine makes queries up to 350x faster, ingests 44% faster and reduces storage by 95% over RDS.

NEW

RAG, search, and Al agents

We just made PostgreSQL a better database for Al with pgvectorscale & pgai. It's as fast as Pinecone, easier to use, up to 75% cheaper, and 100% open source.

Trusted by great companies

“Our queries are really fast, taking only 100 ms for a table with around 1.4 billion rows.”

Christian Halim, engineering manager at Pintu, one of Indonesia’s leading cryptocurrency trading platforms,explains how his team inserts 5 million data rows every 30 minutes, queries more than a billion data rows in 0.1 seconds, and automatically deletes a billion data rows per day.

Your engine for blazingly fast application data

Store and query data quickly and efficiently with automatic partitioning, columnar compression, and real-time aggregation. Grow effortlessly with dynamic scaling and infinite storage.

Built for price-performance

Speed, Scale, and Savings

Blazing-fast query speed

Up to 1000x faster queries than vanilla PostgreSQL, AWS Timestream, InfluxDB, and MongoDB. Give your users answers in milliseconds, not minutes.
