Managed Service for TimescaleDB

To serve TimescaleDB deployments in Azure, GCP, and certain regions in AWS, we've partnered with the vendor Aiven to offer Managed Service for TimescaleDB. This is a managed database platform through which you'll be able to deploy TimescaleDB instances with ease, automating operational tasks like scaling, resizing, configuring high availability, and much more.

Timescale Cloud or Managed Service for TimescaleDB?

If your workload lives in the AWS major regions, we recommend using Timescale Cloud. This platform is built and exclusively operated by Timescale, designed to offer maximum cost-effectiveness and performance for time-series data. If you need Azure, GCP, or a specific AWS region not available in Timescale Cloud, Managed Service for TimescaleDB is the best choice for you.
