What an embarrassment for AWS - getting smoked by an open source project. Should just fire the management team overseeing the timestream project and just provide managed timescaledb instances.
- ctvo 6y agoUnfortunately that company will double down even if there's a hint of traction, and in 3 years it'll finally be decent and TimescaleDB's cloud offering will be in trouble. They have a lot of money and a bit of time. It is very embarrassing that Timestream was delayed for so long only to lose so badly.
- daenney 6y agoA decent amount of AWS product offerings get smoked by FLOSS counterparts. But being able to 1-click use something, not having to figure out how to deploy it, potentially getting commercial support for it etc. is awfully tempting even if the product is only 1/3rd as good.
