Do you mean that TimescaleDB 2.0 can be used instead of Citus to scale general purpose (non just timeseries) workloads?
For example a multitenant workloads where you shard by org_id, etc.?
I actually thought about it, but wasn't aware about v2.0
- eatonphil 5y agoOur use case was OLAP workload and IIRC I don't think it's transaction support is great for horizontally scaling OLTP workloads. I wanted to call it out since the author mentioned timeseries data but didn't mention this aspect of Timescale. (Though to be fair, this feature of Timescale may have came out after the post was written.)
