Overview TimescaleDB is the open source PostgreSQL extension purpose built for time-series data. It adds hypertables, automatic time and space partitioning, continuous aggregates and data retention policies on top of a stock PostgreSQL backend, so every PostgreSQL client, driver and tool continues to work unchanged. This image ships the Community Edition of TimescaleDB under the Apache 2.0 licence, layered on PostgreSQL 16 from the official PGDG repository, and tuned with timescaledb-tune for production time-series workloads.
Database Stack PostgreSQL 16 from the official PostgreSQL Global Development Group (PGDG) APT repository, with TimescaleDB Community installed as a shared_preload_libraries extension from the official Timescale packagecloud repository. A dedicated cloudimg application database with the TimescaleDB extension enabled is ready to receive hypertables on first boot.
Secure First Boot On the first boot of your instance a one shot service rotates both the postgres superuser password and the cloudimg application role password to fresh random values unique to that instance, re-enables the TimescaleDB extension in the cloudimg database, and stores the passwords in a root only credentials file. No shared or default credentials ship in the image.
Ready To Use The PostgreSQL service, configuration, data directory, extension and application database are all prepared. Connect with psql, any standard PostgreSQL driver or your existing tooling and start creating hypertables, continuous aggregates and retention policies immediately. Database files live on a dedicated, independently resizable EBS data volume.

Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as the default login user for your operating system variant (the user guide lists it per variant). PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB listens on port 5432. Retrieve the generated credentials with: sudo cat /root/timescaledb-credentials.txt. Connect locally as the application role with: PGPASSWORD='<password>' psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U cloudimg -d cloudimg. Restrict port 5432 to trusted networks at the security-group level before opening it to the internet. A small nginx landing page is served on port 80 for the Marketplace health check, which is safe to leave open.
