The text highlights the busy month of April at Team Timescale, which saw the launch of a new Guide to Grafana 101 coding series and the release of TimescaleDB 1.7, a major update that includes PG12 support, real-time aggregates, and new free features. The team also hosted virtual events and live-coding sessions, including DataPub #2 April: OpenLitterMap, SolarNetwork, and Making the World a Better Place, which featured speakers sharing how they use open data to fight pollution and improve energy consumption. Additionally, the team shared customer stories of organizations that have successfully implemented TimescaleDB, including Blue Sky Analytics, k6, and Senseforce, and provided tips for optimizing database performance and using features like native compression and data retention policies. The newsletter also featured reading lists from Timescale Product Manager Alex and CTO Mike Freedman, as well as team fun initiatives to recreate the "Office Feel" in a virtual setting.
