Ingesting data with third-party tools

By default, Timescale supports standard SQL inserts. Additionally, you can use third-party tools to build data ingest pipelines.

This section covers some popular frameworks and systems used in conjunction with Timescale:

  • Ingest data using Prometheus
  • Ingest data using Kafka
  • Ingest data using Telegraf
  • Ingest data using Timescale parallel copy
  • Ingest data from a .csv file

For more information about how to use standard SQL insert queries to write data into Timescale, see the Writing Data section.
