migrate-postgres-tables-to-hypertables

Use this skill to migrate identified PostgreSQL tables to Timescale/TimescaleDB hypertables with optimal configuration and validation. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Migrate or convert PostgreSQL tables to hypertables - Execute hypertable migration with minimal downtime - Plan blue-green migration for large tables - Validate hypertable migration success - Configure compression after migration **Prerequisites:** Tables already identified as candidates (use find-hypertable-candidates first if needed) **Keywords:** migrate to hypertable, convert table, Timescale, TimescaleDB, blue-green migration, in-place conversion, create_hypertable, migration validation, compression setup Step-by-step migration planning including: partition column selection, chunk interval calculation, PK/constraint handling, migration execution (in-place vs blue-green), and performance validation queries.
