alt Hacker NewsClickHouse recently has been a breath of fresh air compared to using timescaledb for a long time. Although psql is the greatest there is and I really enjoyed the fact that I could rely on a single database system to run everything, when it came to migration maintenance and deployment it's really a pain and it also feels like development on timescaledb is a bit wishy washy with all the structural changes from version to version and it really feels like an alpha product sometimes.
I was using TimescaleDB some very long time ago, things have changed quite a lot since (it's now even named differently).
In my current setup I was thinking on doing both: upgrading postgresql to timescaledb (to archive old data etc.), and to deploy ClickHouse in parallel. I'm still considering whether to go big on PeerDB to get ClickHouse mirror or just deploy it separately without additional fragility layer.
Would you not recommend using timescaledb at all? I definitely want to avoid alpha-quality software pain, since PostgreSQL is one of the most rock-solid parts of the stack at the moment.
