I introduced Timescale at an IIOT company, we had thousands of sensors regularly sending data up and wanted to efficiently display such metrics to users on a per-sensor basis, and one "tick" of data had a lot of metrics. Timescale let us go from Postgres for metadata and OpenTSDB (awful, stay far away) for time series to just one Timescale instance for everything. Huge win for us. We had enough data that doing the same with vanilla Postgres would have performed much worse (billions of rows). We wrote more about this for an earlier Timescale blog post: https://blog.timescale.com/blog/how-everactive-powers-a-dense-sensor-network-with-virtually-no-power-at-all/ https://blog.timescale.com/blog/how-everactive-powers-a-dens...
