Certainly there is and a lot of people do it- what isn't clear is what it is you feel is missing from PG when it comes to handling time series data..? Generally speaking there's concerns about PG's ability to handle lots of partitions (which comes from there being very large amounts of data being stored), but v12 and v13 have made great improvements in that area and it's not nearly an issue any longer (and performs better in quite a few cases than extensions). > Ours is a new project and we are unsure about whether we should have both > timescaleDB and PGSQL or PGSQL alone is capable of handling this time > series data by tuning the right indexes.etc.. Partitioning and index tuning in PG (look at using BRIN if you haven't already...) is important when you get to larger data volumes. Thanks, Stephen
