We are excited to bring you one extra launch as we wrap up #AlwaysBeLaunching, a month-long effort to execute 10+ launches throughout October. We're releasing easy, transparent, and production-ready support for multi-node deployments on Timescale Cloud, available immediately. With this release, users can create and configure multi-node services exactly the same way as with single node services - in one click and without leaving the UI. This introduces several features to help developers balance productivity with flexibility in a multi-node environment, including decoupled compute and storage plans, automatic partitioning of data into chunks across different instances, and transparent monitoring of cluster internals through the Explorer operations center. The release provides significant improvements in ingest performance, query response time, and scalability for demanding time-series workloads, and is now available to all Timescale Cloud users.
