#postgres #dataengineering #database #tutorial

PostgreSQL is powerful, but scanning huge datasets can slow down queries. What if you could skip unnecessary data and run queries 7x faster? 🚀

In this video, we break down how indexing optimizations in TimescaleDB can dramatically reduce query times. Instead of scanning everything, PostgreSQL can intelligently prune irrelevant data, making real-time analytics more efficient.

🔹 How it works: Min/max indexing helps PostgreSQL skip scanning unnecessary data
🔹 Real-world example: Faster queries for event-tracking & time-series data
🔹 Best for: Large PostgreSQL databases that need real-time analytics

Try this indexing technique in TimescaleDB today and experience massively improved query speed!
