ThinkingElixir 129 - Time series data with Timescale DB
Episode 129 of Thinking Elixir. Tracking, analyzing and visualizing time series data can add a lot of business value to a project! We met up with Dave Lucia to learn more about Timescale DB, a PostgreSQL extension that adds time series tools to our regular database. Dave also created a timescale hex package to make it easier to work with hypertables and hyperfunctions. We learn why Timescale DB makes sense over other options, how to get started with it, example use cases, helpful resources and more!
