Building a distributed time-series database on PostgreSQL

I'm currently using influxdb v1.x and I'm not very happy with it for many reasons (impossible to delete a value, no clustering in free version,...). Can anyone who migrated from influxdb to timescale share his opinion ?

I'll let the community talk more about their own experiences, but we built some easy tools to enable this migration:

Outflux (snapshot migration): https://www.outfluxdata.com/

Telegraph (streaming migration): https://blog.timescale.com/blog/introducing-the-postgresql-t...

Both of these tools will perform automatic schema generation in TimescaleDB, which greatly simplifies the migration.

There is no clustering in timescale either. One of the reasons I stopped exploring this option.
