For time series data storage? I mean more like influx than postgresql.  
And how do you do it without an specific connector node?

Sorry, don't know anyone who has used it. Most of us doing timeseries data management use InfluxDB as it is very friendly to SBC's

Looking briefly at the [website](https://www.timescale.com/) it seems to me that the postgres nodes might work, but I don't know.

@TotallyInformation Using it on a compression filesystem and tuned properly I've obtained very good results.  
And i can keep building SQL queries. I'm a SQL server guy.

@Colin I was using a custom built telegram with a timescale plug-in, but seems it hasn't been updated for some time.
