TimescaleDB raises $40M
TimescaleDB is a great product, but if you plan to go with them long term, there are few points to consider:<p>* They are still trying to figure out their monetization strategy. Initially, they betted on their on-premise Enterprise version, then abandoned it. Now they are pushing their cloud version.<p>* Even though most of their code licensed under Apache license, some code is under their proprietary license.<p>* I&#x27;m sure one can get some ideas about their development directions from their issue tracker and source code, but they don&#x27;t have any public product roadmap.<p>* Even though the product itself is technically very stable, the version compatibility leaves a lot to be desired. There are removed features and broken APIs from version to version.<p>* Their commercial support terms for on-premise instances don&#x27;t seem to be well defined, not publicly at least.
