Timescale — rebranded as Tiger Data in 2025 — is the PostgreSQL data platform company behind TimescaleDB, the open-source PostgreSQL extension for time-series and real-time analytics, and Tiger Cloud, a fully managed PostgreSQL cloud service on AWS and Azure. The platform adds hypertables (automatic time-based partitioning), Hypercore hybrid row-columnar storage, native columnar compression, continuous aggregates, tiered storage to S3, database forks, read replica sets and connection pooling on top of standard PostgreSQL. The company also ships pg_textsearch (BM25 full-text search in Postgres), pgvectorscale and pgai for vector and AI workloads, the Tiger Cloud REST API for programmatic service management, the Tiger CLI with a built-in MCP server, and Ghost, an agent-oriented Postgres provisioning service at ghost.build.
