I’m curious what you mean by this - the community version has most of the features in it.. and if you are willing to pay for something, you’d an run the enterprise version on-prem.. my experience with that is that it’s quite cheap, and you get support as well.

Timescale also has a multi node version now that distributes your data across a cluster sort of like Citus.

I want a hosted PaaS solution. I don't want to self host it. That is the pricing I am comparing.

Citus and Timescale are apples and oranges.

Citus is just scale-out Postgres. TimescaleDB is Postgres for time-series.

There are a long list of capabilities that we've built for time-series that Citus does not have: native 15x compression, data retention policies, continuous aggregates (real-time materialized views refreshed automatically), interpolation, etc.

Nothing against Citus (we are friends with that team) - but they are designed to solve a different problem than we are.
