How time series databases unlock real-time data for robotics
Discover how time series databases help robotics teams manage high-volume sensor data, power AI insights, and keep systems running at scale. The post How time series databases unlock real-time data for robotics appeared first on The Robot Report.
Overview
In Episode 254 of The Robot Report Podcast, we talk to Doug Pagnutti, developer advocate at Tiger Data. He discusses how time series databases like TimescaleDB are improving industrial automation, robotics, and AI applications. He shares insights about integrating these databases with various sensors, managing data at scale, and optimizing performance both on the cloud and on the edge.

Every growing Postgres database eventually hits a wall. Queries slow down, dashboards lag, and teams consider adding a second database.
Tiger Data, creators of TimescaleDB, extend Postgres with time-series primitives, columnar storage, and automatic partitioning so your queries stay fast on live data. No pipelines, no migration, no second system. Just Postgres, built for the workload you actually have.
