Implementing Flags with TimescaleDB

TimescaleDB is an extension of Postgres that is required for the Flags feature. It is recommended to use the Virtual Machine/EC2 installation for TimescaleDB instead of using Helm.

We have included two different deployment strategies for the Timescale implementation:

1. Primary Server with Read Replica
2. Single Server

We recommend using Primary/Secondary for production-level environments and the Single Server for non-production environments.

Primary Server with Read Replica

This deployment strategy involves creating 2 VMs. One that will serve as the primary and another that will serve as the secondary read replica.

Single Server

This deployment strategy involves creating 1 VM. This VM will serve as the primary and single point of failure.
