Hey, hi! Anyone know if Xata is
Hey, hi! Anyone know if Xata is compatible with the TigerData (formerly Timescale) BSL ? Perhaps, at least, in the BYOC offering ?

I’m personally not sure, with BYOC it’s a bit of a gray area and might come down to the interpretation of the license. We’d probably need to get clearance from them.
I can research more if you want. Might make sense to have a live discussion to understand the details and confirm that BYOC will otherwise fit your needs.

Yes, I need to check in with them (TigerData) too. Soon.

Yes, please. Thank you ! It would be great if you guys could check in with them too. 🫣 (licensing@tigerdata.com)

Yes, sure. Let's chat. A rough guess is that our production database would be managed by TigerData (in TigerCloud) and our staging (nightly/weekly branch from production) and development (developer branches and ephemeral branches) databases would be managed by Xata (in AWS, via your BYOC option).
If your BYOC offering is structured in a way that you are there only to manage our database, and you are not distributing TimescaleDB à la Database-as-a-Service, then it should be ok (?)
