Time Series Database Challenge

Time-Series are everywhere and so are databases too. Which one is the best? Well, you can go through all benchmarks you want but you will never be able to find out who is telling you the truth.

That is the reason to have this hands-on with 2 of the coolest time-series databases vendors in the Market: TimeScale and QuestDB.

During this hands-on we will split the attendees into 2 groups, we will work with a single dataset, analyse the data and perform different queries to learn about the different approaches and functionalities of each database. At the end of the session, we will confront the results and will happily join together to drink some beers.
