I don't think there's any free TSDB available. The project is maybe 3 years old. InfluxDB is more recent and quite limited. Things like sharding is not support

InfluxDB is more recent and quite limited. Things like sharding is not supported and they stated it would never be supported except in a paid edition when they make one.
Prometheus is more recent. Similar story with scaling. They changed storage formats and rewrote once or twice in the past few years, it's moving really fast. It's more of a standalone product for server metrics (node exporter + prometheus + grafana), wouldn't recommend to use as a general purpose database.

- mnsmns 6y agoAs of today sharding is supported in InfluxDB. Prometheus is not suitable for traces, it is more for metrics. The problem I see with all these DBs are they are well suited for specific applications like prometheus for metrics, Influx for IoT. Timescale is still in nascent stages.
