The PostgreSQL ecosystem offers various partitioning techniques to optimize performance and maintenance, including timescale's hypertables and pg_partman extension. While both approaches aim to simplify partitioning, this article argues that hypertables present compelling advantages over pg_partman, offering dynamic partition management, reduced locking overhead, and automated retention policies. These features enable seamless data management, eliminating the need for manual intervention and reducing the risk of errors. Additionally, hypertables unlock additional features tailored for time-based data, such as compression, continuous aggregates, hyperfunctions, and a job scheduler, making them a complete product that streamlines partitioning in PostgreSQL.
