Case Study: TimescaleDB achieves zero-CVE software delivery with Replicated SecureBuild

TimescaleDB delivers Zero-CVE images with Timescale, rebuilding 40,000 ephemeral VMs in 30 days

TimescaleDB, a time-series database, faced the challenge of securing its complex software supply chain to meet enterprise demands for zero known vulnerabilities (CVEs). Its vendor, Replicated, addressed this through its SecureBuild service, which was designed to automate the creation of secure container images without diverting the customer's own engineering resources.

Replicated's SecureBuild solution implemented ephemeral "clean room" builds, automated full dependency mapping and rebuilds, and continuous scanning to produce Zero-CVE images. This resulted in enterprise buyers being able to obtain a hardened version of TimescaleDB, accelerating sales cycles and reducing security risks. The vendor's service also ensured faster patching of vulnerabilities and maintained 100% uptime since its general availability.
