- tucnak 2y agoi's not Postgres-like, it _is_ Postgres
- RedShift1 2y agoInfluxDB is a "proper" time series database?

They deleted customer data permanently in their hosted version after sending two emails to billing addresses. Their marketing and product naming also sucks: InfluxDB InfluxDB Cloud Serverless InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated InfluxDB Clustered
