2.17.0 (2024-10-08)

This release adds support for PostgreSQL 17, significantly improves the performance of continuous aggregate refreshes, and contains performance improvements for analytical queries and delete operations over compressed hypertables. We recommend that you upgrade at the next available opportunity.

Highlighted features in TimescaleDB v2.17.0

Full PostgreSQL 17 support for all existing features. TimescaleDB v2.17 is available for PostgreSQL 14, 15, 16, and 17.
Significant performance improvements for continuous aggregate policies: continuous aggregate refresh is now using merge instead of deleting old materialized data and re-inserting.

This update can decrease dramatically the amount of data that must be written on the continuous aggregate in the presence of a small number of changes, reduce the i/o cost of refreshing a continuous aggregate, and generate fewer Write-Ahead Logs (WAL). Overall, continuous aggregate policies will be more lightweight, use less system resources, and complete faster.
Increased performance for real-time analytical queries over compressed hypertables: we are excited to introduce additional Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) vectorization optimization to our engine by supporting vectorized execution for queries that group by using the segment_by column(s) and aggregate using the basic aggregate functions (sum, count, avg, min, max).

Stay tuned for more to come in follow-up releases! Support for grouping on additional columns, filtered aggregation, vectorized expressions, and time_bucket is coming soon.
Improved performance of deletes on compressed hypertables when a large amount of data is affected.

This improvement speeds up operations that delete whole segments by skipping the decompression step. It is enabled for all deletes that filter by the segment_by column(s).

PostgreSQL 14 deprecation announcement

We will continue supporting PostgreSQL 14 until April 2025. Closer to that time, we will announce the specific version of TimescaleDB in which PostgreSQL 14 support will not be included going forward.

Features

#6882: Allow delete of full segments on compressed chunks without decompression.
#7033: Use merge statement on continuous aggregates refresh.
#7126: Add functions to show the compression information.
#7147: Vectorize partial aggregation for sum(int4) with grouping on segment by columns.
#7204: Track additional extensions in telemetry.
#7207: Refactor the decompress_batches_scan functions for easier maintenance.
#7209: Add a function to drop the osm chunk.
#7275: Add support for the returning clause for merge.
#7200: Vectorize common aggregate functions like min, max, sum, avg, stddev, variance for compressed columns of arithmetic types, when there is grouping on segment by columns or no grouping.

Bug fixes

#7187: Fix the string literal length for the compressed_data_info function.
#7191: Fix creating default indexes on chunks when migrating the data.
#7195: Fix the segment by and order by checks when dropping a column from a compressed hypertable.
#7201: Use the generic extension description when building apt and rpm loader packages.
#7227: Add an index to the compression_chunk_size catalog table.
#7229: Fix the foreign key constraints where the index and the constraint column order are different.
#7230: Do not propagate the foreign key constraints to the osm chunk.

2.16.1 (2024-08-06)

This release contains bug fixes since the 2.16.0 release. We recommend that you upgrade at the next available opportunity.

Bugfixes

#7182 Fix untier_chunk for hypertables with foreign keys

2.16.0 (2024-07-31)

This release contains significant performance improvements when working with compressed data, extended join support in continuous aggregates, and the ability to define foreign keys from regular tables towards hypertables. We recommend that you upgrade at the next available opportunity.

In TimescaleDB v2.16.0 we:

Introduce multiple performance focused optimizations for data manipulation operations (DML) over compressed chunks.

Improved upsert performance by more than 100x in some cases and more than 1000x in some update/delete scenarios.
Add the ability to define chunk skipping indexes on non-partitioning columns of compressed hypertables

TimescaleDB v2.16.0 extends chunk exclusion to use those skipping (sparse) indexes when queries filter on the relevant columns, and prune chunks that do not include any relevant data for calculating the query response.
Offer new options for use cases that require foreign keys defined.

You can now add foreign keys from regular tables towards hypertables. We have also removed some really annoying locks in the reverse direction that blocked access to referenced tables while compression was running.
Extend Continuous Aggregates to support more types of analytical queries.

More types of joins are supported, additional equality operators on join clauses, and support for joins between multiple regular tables.

Highlighted features in this release

Improved query performance through chunk exclusion on compressed hypertables.

You can now define chunk skipping indexes on compressed chunks for any column with one of the following integer data types: smallint, int, bigint, serial, bigserial, date, timestamp, timestamptz.

After you call enable_chunk_skipping on a column, TimescaleDB tracks the min and max values for that column. TimescaleDB uses that information to exclude chunks for queries that filter on that column, and would not find any data in those chunks.
Improved upsert performance on compressed hypertables.

By using index scans to verify constraints during inserts on compressed chunks, TimescaleDB speeds up some ON CONFLICT clauses by more than 100x.
Improved performance of updates, deletes, and inserts on compressed hypertables.

By filtering data while accessing the compressed data and before decompressing, TimescaleDB has improved performance for updates and deletes on all types of compressed chunks, as well as inserts into compressed chunks with unique constraints.

By signaling constraint violations without decompressing, or decompressing only when matching records are found in the case of updates, deletes and upserts, TimescaleDB v2.16.0 speeds up those operations more than 1000x in some update/delete scenarios, and 10x for upserts.
You can add foreign keys from regular tables to hypertables, with support for all types of cascading options. This is useful for hypertables that partition using sequential IDs, and need to reference those IDs from other tables.
Lower locking requirements during compression for hypertables with foreign keys

Advanced foreign key handling removes the need for locking referenced tables when new chunks are compressed. DML is no longer blocked on referenced tables while compression runs on a hypertable.
Improved support for queries on Continuous Aggregates

INNER/LEFT and LATERAL joins are now supported. Plus, you can now join with multiple regular tables, and you can have more than one equality operator on join clauses.

PostgreSQL 13 support removal announcement

Following the deprecation announcement for PostgreSQL 13 in TimescaleDB v2.13, PostgreSQL 13 is no longer supported in TimescaleDB v2.16.

The Currently supported PostgreSQL major versions are 14, 15 and 16.

This release contains performance improvements for compressed hypertables and continuous aggregates and bug fixes since the 2.11.2 release. We recommend that you upgrade at the next available opportunity.

This release moves all internal functions from the _timescaleb_internal schema into the _timescaledb_functions schema. This separates code from internal data objects and improves security by allowing more restrictive permissions for the code schema. If you are calling any of those internal functions you should adjust your code as soon as possible. This version also includes a compatibility layer that allows calling them in the old location but that layer will be removed in 2.14.0.

Joins in continuous aggregates
Re-architecture of how compression works: ~2x improvement on INSERT rate into compressed chunks.
Full PostgreSQL 15 support for all existing features. Support for the newly introduced MERGE command on hypertables will be introduced on a follow-up release.

PostgreSQL 12 deprecation announcement We will continue supporting PostgreSQL 12 until July 2023. Sooner to that time, we will announce the specific version of TimescaleDB in which PostgreSQL 12 support will not be included going forward.

Old format of Continuous Aggregates deprecation announcement TimescaleDB 2.7 introduced a new format for continuous aggregates that improves performance. All instances with Continuous Aggregates using the old format should migrate to the new format by July 2023, when support for the old format will be removed.

2.4.0 (2021-07-29)

This release adds new experimental features since the 2.3.1 release.

The experimental features in this release are:

APIs for chunk manipulation across data nodes in a distributed hypertable setup. This includes the ability to add a data node and move chunks to the new data node for cluster rebalancing.
The time_bucket_ng function, a newer version of time_bucket. This function supports years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds.

We’re committed to developing these experiments, giving the community a chance to provide early feedback and influence the direction of TimescaleDB’s development. We’ll travel faster with your input!

Please create your feedback as a GitHub issue (using the experimental-schema label), describe what you found, and tell us the steps or share the code snip to recreate it.

This release also includes several bug fixes.

This release adds the Skip Scan optimization, which significantly improves the performance of queries with DISTINCT ON. This optimization is not yet available for queries on distributed hypertables.

This release also adds a function to create a distributed restore point, which allows performing a consistent restore of a multi-node cluster from a backup.

The bug fixes in this release address issues with size and stats functions, high memory usage in distributed inserts, slow distributed ORDER BY queries, indexes involving INCLUDE, and single chunk query planning.

PostgreSQL 11 deprecation announcement

Timescale is working hard on our next exciting features. To make that possible, we require functionality that is unfortunately absent on PostgreSQL 11. For this reason, we will continue supporting PostgreSQL 11 until mid-June 2021. Sooner to that time, we will announce the specific version of TimescaleDB in which PostgreSQL 11 support will not be included going forward.

2.0.0 (2020-12-18)

With this release, we are officially moving TimescaleDB 2.0 to GA, concluding several release candidates.

TimescaleDB 2.0 adds the much-anticipated support for distributed hypertables (multi-node TimescaleDB), as well as new features and enhancements to core functionality to give users better clarity and more control and flexibility over their data.

Multi-node architecture: In particular, with TimescaleDB 2.0, users can now create distributed hypertables across multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and performance.

Multi-node TimescaleDB can be self managed or, for easier operation, launched within Timescale's fully-managed cloud services.

This release also adds:

Support for user-defined actions, allowing users to define, customize, and schedule automated tasks, which can be run by the built-in jobs scheduling framework now exposed to users.
Significant changes to continuous aggregates, which now separate the view creation from the policy. Users can now refresh individual regions of the continuous aggregate materialized view, or schedule automated refreshing via policy.
Redesigned informational views, including new (and more general) views for information about hypertable's dimensions and chunks, policies and user-defined actions, as well as support for multi-node TimescaleDB.
Moving all formerly enterprise features into our Community Edition, and updating Timescale License, which now provides additional (more permissive) rights to users and developers.

Some of the changes above (e.g., continuous aggregates, updated informational views) do introduce breaking changes to APIs and are not backwards compatible. While the update scripts in TimescaleDB 2.0 will upgrade databases running TimescaleDB 1.x automatically, some of these API and feature changes may require changes to clients and/or upstream scripts that rely on the previous APIs. Before upgrading, we recommend reviewing upgrade documentation at docs.timescale.com for more details.

Major Features

TimescaleDB 2.0 moves the following major features to GA:

#1923 Add support for distributed hypertables
#2006 Add support for user-defined actions
#2125 #2221 Improve Continuous Aggregate API
#2084 #2089 #2098 #2417 Redesign informational views
#2435 Move enterprise features to community
#2437 Update Timescale License

2.0.0-rc1 (2020-10-06)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.7.4 release. We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds the long-awaited support for distributed hypertables to TimescaleDB. With 2.0, users can create distributed hypertables across multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and performance.

This release also adds support for user-defined actions allowing users to define actions that are run by the TimescaleDB automation framework.

In addition to these major new features, the 2.0 branch introduces breaking changes to APIs and existing features, such as continuous aggregates. These changes are not backwards compatible and might require changes to clients and/or scripts that rely on the previous APIs. Please review our updated documentation and do proper testing to ensure compatibility with your existing applications.

The noticeable breaking changes in APIs are:

Redefined functions for policies
A continuous aggregate is now created with CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW instead of CREATE VIEW and automated refreshing requires adding a policy via add_continuous_aggregate_policy
Redesign of informational views, including new (and more general) views for information about policies and user-defined actions

This release candidate is upgradable, so if you are on a previous release (e.g., 1.7.4) you can upgrade to the release candidate and later expect to be able to upgrade to the final 2.0 release. However, please carefully consider your compatibility requirements before upgrading.

Major Features

#1923 Add support for distributed hypertables
#2006 Add support for user-defined actions
#2435 Move enterprise features to community
#2437 Update Timescale License

2.0.0-beta6 (2020-09-14)

For beta releases, upgrading from an earlier version of the extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This beta release includes breaking changes to APIs. The most notable changes since the beta-5 release are the following, which will be reflected in forthcoming documentation for the 2.0 release.

Existing information views were reorganized. Retrieving information about sizes and statistics was moved to functions. New views were added to expose information, which was previously available only internally.
New ability to create custom jobs was added.
Continuous aggregate API was redesigned. Its policy creation is separated from the view creation.
compress_chunk_policy and drop_chunk_policy were renamed to compression_policy and retention_policy.

2.0.0-beta5 (2020-06-08)

This release adds new functionality on distributed hypertables, including (but not limited to) basic LIMIT pushdown, manual chunk compression, table access methods storage options, SERIAL columns, and altering of the replication factor. This release only supports PG11 and PG12. Thus, PG9.6 and PG10 are no longer supported.

Note that the 2.0 major release will introduce breaking changes to user functions and APIs. In particular, this beta removes the cascade parameter from drop_chunks and changes the names of certain GUC parameters. Expect additional breaking changes to be introduced up until the 2.0 release.

For beta releases, upgrading from an earlier version of the extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

1.7.0 (2020-04-16)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.6.1 release. We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds the long-awaited support for PostgreSQL 12 to TimescaleDB.

This release also adds a new default behavior when querying continuous aggregates that we call real-time aggregation. A query on a continuous aggregate will now combine materialized data with recent data that has yet to be materialized.

Note that only newly created continuous aggregates will have this real-time query behavior, although it can be enabled on existing continuous aggregates with a configuration setting as follows:

ALTER VIEW continuous_view_name SET (timescaledb.materialized_only=false);

This release also moves several data management lifecycle features to the Community version of TimescaleDB (from Enterprise), including data reordering and data retention policies.

Major Features

#1456 Add support for PostgreSQL 12
#1685 Add support for real-time aggregation on continuous aggregates

Bugfixes

#1665 Add ignore_invalidation_older_than to timescaledb_information.continuous_aggregates view
#1750 Handle undefined ignore_invalidation_older_than
#1757 Restrict watermark to max for continuous aggregates

#1801 Include parallel leader in plan execution
#1808 Fix ts_hypertable_get_all for compressed tables
#1828 Ignore dropped chunks in compressed_chunk_stats

Licensing changes

Reorder and policies around reorder and drop chunks are now accessible to community users, not just enterprise
Gapfill functionality no longer warns about expired license

1.6.0 (2020-01-14)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.5.1 release. We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

The major new feature in this release allows users to keep the aggregated data in a continuous aggregate while dropping the raw data with drop_chunks. This allows users to save storage by keeping only the aggregates.

The semantics of the refresh_lag parameter for continuous aggregates has been changed to be relative to the current timestamp instead of the maximum value in the table. This change requires that an integer_now func be set on hypertables with integer-based time columns to use continuous aggregates on this table.

We added a timescaledb.ignore_invalidation_older_than parameter for continuous aggregates. This parameter accept a time-interval (e.g. 1 month). If set, it limits the amount of time for which to process invalidation. Thus, if timescaledb.ignore_invalidation_older_than = '1 month', then any modifications for data older than 1 month from the current timestamp at modification time may not cause continuous aggregate to be updated. This limits the amount of work that a backfill can trigger. By default, all invalidations are processed.

Major Features

#1589 Allow drop_chunks while keeping continuous aggregates

Minor Features

#1568 Add ignore_invalidation_older_than option to continuous aggs
#1575 Reorder group-by clause for continuous aggregates
#1592 Improve continuous agg user messages

2.0.0-beta4 (2019-12-19)

For beta releases, upgrading from an earlier version of the extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This release includes user experience improvements for managing data nodes, more efficient statistics collection for distributed hypertables, and miscellaneous fixes and improvements.

1.5.1 (2019-11-12)

This maintenance release contains bugfixes since the 1.5.0 release. We deem it low priority for upgrading.

In particular the fixes contained in this maintenance release address potential segfaults and no other security vulnerabilities. The bugfixes are related to bloom indexes and updates from previous versions.

Bugfixes

#1523 Fix bad SQL updates from previous updates
#1526 Fix hypertable model
#1530 Set active snapshots in multi-xact index create

Thanks

@84660320 for reporting an issue with bloom indexes
@gumshoes @perhamm @jermudgeon @gmisagm for reporting the issue with updates

2.0.0-beta3 (2019-11-05)

For beta releases, upgrading from an earlier version of the extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This release improves performance for queries executed on distributed hypertables, fixes minor issues and blocks a number of SQL API functions, which are not supported on distributed hypertables. It also adds information about distributed databases in the telemetry.

2.0.0-beta2 (2019-10-22)

This release introduces distributed hypertables, a major new feature that allows hypertables to scale out across multiple nodes for increased performance and fault tolerance. Please review the documentation to learn how to configure and use distributed hypertables and what current limitations are.

1.5.0 (2019-10-31)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.4.2 release. We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds compression as a major new feature. Multiple type-specific compression options are available in this release (including DeltaDelta with run-length-encoding for integers and timestamps; Gorilla compression for floats; dictionary-based compression for any data type, but specifically for low-cardinality datasets; and other LZ-based techniques). Individual columns can be compressed with type-specific compression algorithms as Postgres' native row-based format are rolled up into columnar-like arrays on a per chunk basis. The query planner then handles transparent decompression for compressed chunks at execution time.

This release also adds support for basic data tiering by supporting the migration of chunks between tablespaces, as well as support for parallel query coordination to the ChunkAppend node. Previously ChunkAppend would rely on parallel coordination in the underlying scans for parallel plans.

More information can be found on our blog or in this tutorial

For this release only, you will need to restart the database before running ALTER EXTENSION

Major Features

#1393 Moving chunks between different tablespaces
#1433 Make ChunkAppend parallel aware
#1434 Introducing native compression, multiple compression algorithms, and hybrid row/columnar projections

@mhagander and @devrimgunduz for suggesting adding a CMAKE flag to control the default telemetry level

1.3.0 (2019-05-06)

This release contains major new functionality that we call continuous aggregates.

Aggregate queries which touch large swathes of time-series data can take a long time to compute because the system needs to scan large amounts of data on every query execution. Our continuous aggregates continuously calculate the results of a query in the background and materialize the results. Queries to the continuous aggregate view are then significantly faster as they do not need to touch the raw data in the hypertable, instead using the pre-computed aggregates in the view.

Continuous aggregates are somewhat similar to PostgreSQL materialized views, but unlike a materialized view, continuous aggregates do not need to be refreshed manually; the view will be refreshed automatically in the background as new data is added, or old data is modified. Additionally, it does not need to re-calculate all of the data on every refresh. Only new and/or invalidated data will be calculated. Since this re-aggregation is automatic, it doesn’t add any maintenance burden to your database.

Our continuous aggregate approach supports high-ingest rates by avoiding the high-write amplification associated with trigger-based approaches. Instead, we use invalidation techniques to track what data has changed, and then correct the materialized aggregate the next time that the automated process executes.

More information can be found on our docs overview or in this tutorial.

1.2.0 (2019-01-29)

This is our first release to include Timescale-Licensed features, in addition to new Apache-2 capabilities.

We are excited to be introducing new time-series analytical functions, advanced data lifecycle management capabilities, and improved performance.

Time-series analytical functions: Users can now use our time_bucket_gapfill function, to write complex gapfilling, last object carried forward, and interpolation queries.
Advanced data lifecycle management: We are introducing scheduled policies, which use our background worker framework to manage time-series data. In this release, we support scheduled drop_chunks and reorder.
Improved performance: We added support for ordered appends, which optimize a large range of queries - particularly those that are ordered by time and contain a LIMIT clause. Please note that ordered appends do not support ordering by time_bucket at this time.
Postgres 11 Support: We added beta support for PG11 in 1.1.0. We're happy to announce that our PG11 support is now out of beta, and fully supported.

This release adds code under a new license, LICENSE_TIMESCALE. This code can be found in tsl.

For this release only, you will need to restart the database before running ALTER EXTENSION

1.1.0 (2018-12-13)

Our 1.1 release introduces beta support for PG 11, as well as several performance optimizations aimed at improving chunk exclusion for read queries. We are also packaging our new timescale-tune tool (currently in beta) with our Debian and Linux releases. If you encounter any issues with our beta features, please file a Github issue.

Potential breaking changes

In addition to optimizing first() / last() to utilize indices for non-group-by queries, we adjusted its sorting behavior to match that of PostgreSQL’s max() and min() functions. Previously, if the column being sorted had NULL values, a NULL would be returned. First() and last() now instead ignore NULL values.

1.0.0 (2018-10-30)

This is our 1.0 release!

For notable commits between 0.12.0/0.12.1 and this final 1.0 release, please see previous entries for the release candidates (rc1, rc2, and rc3).

Thanks To all the external contributors who helped us debug the release candidates, as well as anyone who has contributed bug reports, PRs, or feedback on Slack, GitHub, and other channels. All input has been valuable and helped us create the product we have today!

Potential breaking changes

To better align with the ISO standard so that time bucketing starts each week by default on a Monday (rather than Saturday), the time_bucket epoch/origin has been changed from January 1, 2000 to January 3, 2000. The function now includes an origin parameter that can be used to adjust this.
Error codes are now prefixed with TS instead of the prior IO prefix. If you were checking for these error codes by name, please update your code.

1.0.0-rc3 (2018-10-18)

This release is our third 1.0 release candidate. We expect to only merge bug fixes between now and our final 1.0 release. This is a big milestone for us and signifies our maturity and enterprise readiness.

PLEASE NOTE that release candidate (rc) builds will only be made available via GitHub and Docker, and not on other release channels. Please help us test these release candidates out if you can!

Potential breaking change: Starting with rc2, we updated our error codes to be prefixed with TS instead of the old IO prefix. If you were checking for these error codes by name, please update your checks.

0.12.0 (2018-09-10)

High-level changes

Scheduler framework: This release introduces a background job framework and scheduler. Each database running within a PostgreSQL instance has a scheduler that schedules recurring jobs from a new jobs table while maintaining statistics that inform the scheduler's policy. Future releases will leverage this scheduler framework for more automated management of data retention, archiving, analytics, and the like.

Telemetry: Using this new scheduler framework, TimescaleDB databases now send anonymized usage information to a telemetry server via HTTPS, as well as perform version checking to notify users if a newer version is available. For transparency, a new get_telemetry_report function details the exact JSON that is sent, and users may also opt out of this telemetry and version check.

Continued hardening: This release addresses several issues around more robust backup and recovery, handling large numbers of chunks, and additional test coverage.

0.11.0 (2018-08-08)

High-level changes

Adaptive chunking: This feature, currently in beta, allows the database to automatically adapt a chunk's time interval, so that users do not need to manually set (and possibly manually change) this interval size. In this release, users can specify either a target chunk data size (in terms of MB or GB), and the chunk's time intervals will be automatically adapted. Alternatively, users can ask the database to just estimate a target size itself based on the platform's available memory and other parameters, and the system will adapt accordingly. This type of automation can simplify initial database test and operations. This feature is default off. Note: The default time interval for non-adaptive chunking has also been changed from 1 month to 1 week.
Continued hardening: This release addresses a number of less frequently used schema modifications, functions, or constraints. Unsupported functions are safely blocked, while we have added support for a number of new types of table alterations. This release also adds additional test coverage.
Support for additional types of time columns, if they are binary compatible (thanks @fvannee!).

Smarter use of HashAggregate by teaching the planner to better estimate the number of output rows when using time-based grouping.
New convenience function for getting the approximate number of rows in a hypertable (hypertable_approximate_row_count).
Fixed support for installing extension into non-public schemas

0.9.0 (2018-03-05)

High-level changes

Support for multiple extension versions on different databases in the same PostgreSQL instance.

Significant refactoring to simplify and improve codebase, including improvements to error handling, security/permissions, and more
Corrections to edge-case scenarios involving dropping schemas, hypertables, dimensions, and more
Correctness improvements through propagating reloptions from main table to chunk tables and blocking ONLY commands that try to alter hypertables (i.e., changes should be applied to chunks as well)
Addition of a migrate_data option to create_hypertable to allow non-empty tables to be turned into hypertables without separate creation & insertion steps. Note, this option may take a while if the original table has lots of data
Support for ALTER TABLE RENAME CONSTRAINT
Support for adjusting the number of partitions for a space dimension

0.4.0 (2017-08-21)

High-level changes

Exclude chunks when constraints can be constifyed even if they are considered mutable like NOW().
Support for negative values in the dimension range which allows for pre-1970 dates.
Improve handling of default chunk times for integral date times by forcing it to be explicit rather than guessing the units of the time.

"Upserts" are now supported via normal ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE/ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING syntax. However, ON CONFLICT ON CONSTRAINT is not yet supported.
Improved support for user-defined triggers on hypertables. Now handles both INSERT BEFORE and INSERT AFTER triggers, and triggers can be named arbitrarily (before, a _0_ prefix was required to ensure correct execution priority).

0.1.0 (2017-06-28)

IMPORTANT NOTE

Starting with this release, TimescaleDB will now support upgrading between extension versions using the typical ALTER EXTENSION command, unless otherwise noted in future release notes. This important step should make it easier to test TimescaleDB and be able to get the latest benefits from new versions of TimescaleDB. If you were previously using a version with the -beta tag, you will need to DROP any databases currently using TimescaleDB and re-create them in order to upgrade to this new version. To backup and migrate data, use pg_dump to save the table schemas and COPY to write hypertable data to CSV for re-importing after upgrading is complete. We describe a similar process on our docs.
